Animated Weapons are flying monsters, meaning they can fly over small obstacles. Flyers also can't be damaged by ground effects (e.g. burning ground). Flyers can travel over non-flying monsters without blocking their movement.

Animated Weapons are minions that are considered to be using the original weapon animated. They are therefore affected by modifiers to minions, as well as support gems for weapons, such as Elemental Damage with Attacks SupportElemental Damage with Attacks SupportAttack, Support
