I think you might be [censored] there, get a stealth io, and stop being mean to your char

When he got there, though, I found that he'd outleveled the zone (its capped at 35, he's 38) so Operative Massey wasn't offering it.

And no, there's no way for you to get it anymore, contacts look at your security level rather than combat level, so exemplaring won't help.

Really? ParagonWiki differs - might try logging on with a low 30s toon later, and do an empirical check.
Anyway, ta to both for reply - looks like it's IOs and/or empowerment stations for my SoA then. (And I know these only does stealth, not invis! 
)
Combat invis is only stealth, i think. Could be wrong there though.
Update on levels - just took a 35 hero into Siren's, and (1) he wasn't offered the patrol mission, and (2) level 29 mobs were conning blue.
So, looks like the cap on SC is 30 - might go in and edit ParagonWiki later.
BTW, London, I think Combat Invis is "real" invis - IIRC Hyper Steath, the temp power from the lower level PvP zone is the stealth one.

They are identical powers with different names. I have both on one of the characters I'm currently levelling.

I'll have to differ on that - just did patrols for the powers with two separate characters of the appropriate levels.
The one with Combat Invisibility could stand right in front of a +1 boss, and was completely ignored.
The one with Hyper Stealth got noticed by a +0 minion at a range of 25-ish ft.
No other stealth powers running in either case, an the mobs involved didn't have any unusual +Perc bonuses.
Ah, my pardon, I must have looked too quickly when I got CI.
CI isn't Invisibility, but it is better than Hyper Stealth.
HS gives +3500 Stealth and +2.5 DEF.
CI gives +5500 Stealth and +3.75 DEF.
As I recall, full invisibility gives +10000 Stealth, but then you can't do anything useful while using it.

Over the weekend my SoA got a mission it would have been handy to get the Siren's Call "Combat Invisibility" power for, so he headed off to the PvP zone at a suitably quiet hour to run the patrol.
When he got there, though, I found that he'd outleveled the zone (its capped at 35, he's 38) so Operative Massey wasn't offering it.
"I know", I thought, " quick visit to Ouroboros to fake being a lower level, back to Siren's, and that's that". Gave it a try, then found Massey was still not playing ball - the old "It looks like you have enough to do already" line, presumably because the game treats flashback missions as pseudo-SFs.
So, have I missed the boat on this one or is there some cunning ploy I've missed to get Massey to cooperate?
