There seemed to be a lot of confusion as to how/why some mobs sometimes see invis. You can see the exact same discussion on other NPCs.

In the above link, they decided that "players were the ones casting see-invis on mobs".
Right now on P99 we believe its part of the spawn - either they spawn with see invis or they don't.
That should have been very easy to document and prove - someone could have figured this out in many scenarios simply by camping one of those mobs - but no one ever seems to do that. There's always a mystery behind them.
Why?
I found this thread that discussed Pandos in West Freeport doing the same thing.

(search for "The Real Story")
Is it a West Freeport thing???
But then someone weighs in on the REAL reason why some mobs see invis sometimes....

There's a bug that's been around for years. When you charm a mob and then let the charm go, that mob now sees invisible. It wont be listed on thier buffs list but from then on till you kill them, that particular npc can see invis. Responsible charmers kill off their old pets , but this is a faction mob so thats not so simple. But this is why he sometimes sees and sometimes doesnt. When he does, someone was there before you trying charm.
