After talking to a friend, I think there'll probably be the following Addition to an Eldritch Phantom's Powers.

At level 24, under the following conditions
1) Obfuscation must be In Effect
2) Non-Detection must be In Effect
3) Party must not be engaged in Combat

the Eldritch Phantom will use an ability on the melee weapon ; it lasts for only 1 attack
- Backstabbed target gains Protection from Magic for 2 seconds

This will further enhance the role of the Eldritch Phantom as the anti-mage assassin - perfect given their understanding of the arcane arts, I feel.

Do you guys feel this is overpowered / underpowered?
Should it be put as a separate ability? (assuming I can implement it in this form. separate ability will be more powerful since there is more flexibility for use)

What will it mean? If it is for two seconds, do you basically intend that it dispells all buffs?

Ah, you mean that as a negative effect, so he doesn't gain but is cursed with Protection from Magic for 2 seconds?

Kinda yes, I guess. After all, he should be able to finish his job quietly.

Hmm, there is also other option, silence the target.

Yes, "cursed" is definitely more appropriate than "gained"
