Ni has an attitude where the world as sensed (what we see, hear, smell, touch) is illusory and merely a phenomena which blinds us from what is. I think Kant is a classic Ni user when he insists on "things-in-themselves" and "numena" which cannot be known but are also truer.
You are confusing transcendental idealism with empirical idealism. Kant did not argue or state that "things-in-themselves" and "nuomena" are truer or that reality is illusory. That is a common misconception about Kant that is even taught in colleges. Read Kant's Refutation of Material Idealism, Henry Allison is also helpful.
