So I was thinking about blurspheres earlier and it occurs to me that the best advantage to give to emulate a fuzzy-rendered monster is not to reduce attack accuracy but to reduce attack rate.
I don't want to be constantly running iterators to edit attackers' minmissilechance, and I'm sure +NOSECTOR is going to have unwanted physics side effects, so is there any way to cause an actor to be deemed invisible for monster sight checks without causing the monster to change targets?
Make target unattackable without affecting attacker?

Re: Make target unattackable without affecting attacker?
None that I see. SHOOTABLE would cause the enemy to look for another player.

+FRIENDLY?
A_SetTics(); also might work.
You could remove it from the blockmap, then add it back, using A_ChangeLinkFlags();
You could store the current target into a variable, then use bSHOOTABLE = false in an anonymous function, then set the target to the variable. Null-checking might be necessary.
Of course I'm a ZScript newb so I'm just throwing things at a wall and seeing what sticks.
