Did someone elaborate on what he was doing in some text I missed? Because that makes sense, during the quest I thought he was just literally going invisible which was also baffling me because that never seemed to work BEFORE on Ran'jit.
I'm pretty sure the buff/debuff you get when you use the role action specifically calls it an alchemical concoction made by Urianger for Thancred's use. I also wonder if part of the reason it works is because Thancred isn't in his original body and we aren't really ever given an explanation for how the Scions current forms work in the First. They can take damage and die but they never possessed any bodies either.
