So, what would the hitpoints and hardness of a Spectral Searchlight be? After being shot at by the Pale Snipers as the party invisibly floated over the ruined monestary, and then illuminated by searchlights as the machinegunners in the two nearest towers joined in, one of my players tried shooting a Searchlight.
He only got one shot off before the weight of fire forced them all to run, but I'm wondering how much damage those things should be able to take. Any suggestions?
Since these are magic items, I think they would be difficult to destroy with an arrow. Magical fire, however, might do the trick.
My players have actually taken out the guards of all the towers one by one, and then used disable device to dim the lights. It was a memorable night, with nearly 2 PC deaths and one of the towers burnt to the ground. And blinded soldiers trapping themselves in their own barbed wire (because one of the PCs lured them there after they were blinded).
