Fade is incorrect. Phantoms seem to hang out where they were when they turn invisible, but these guys seem to continue moving around. In Soulflayer Canyon I fought one and watched it fade, kept waiting for it to appear, and ended up getting hit with its swirly charge thing from behind. Killed the one that hit me, and combat ended, indicating that it was the same one I had been fighting before it faded. Best bet is to back up to get a clearer view of the area because they use their invisibility to flank.

These are fairly fragile, as a sorcerer I have no problem blasting them into oblivion with Ingle. If you use the FPS alternative aiming style (click in the left stick on the Xbox controller switches ingle from an auto-lock to a shooter) and you can blast them before they even enter a battle stance, which causes extra damage and can usually kill them outright.
