'''Warp Pads''' are pads used to teleport certain characters to specific locations of a world instantly, making navigating through it easier.

'''Warp Pads''' are pads that were introduced in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]''. Warp Pads can teleport the player to any other previously-visited pad in the same world. The worlds in Banjo-Tooie are significantly larger than the first game so Warp Pads are very useful to save time traveling between important sections of the worlds.
In ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', there are usually five Warp Pads in each world, with the exceptions being [[Cloud Cuckooland]] and [[Cauldron Keep]], which only have two, and the [[Isle O' Hags]] which has [[Jamjars' Silo]]s instead. Warp Pads need to be stepped on in order to be activated and used by pressing {{button|N64|B}} while on them.
 
Warp Pads are blue with a swirling image. When the player finds and touches one, the pad changes from transparent to active. After finding at least two Warp Pads in a world, the player can use them by pressing {{button|N64|B}} while standing on them, and choosing another active pad to warp to.
 
== Worlds ==
There are usually five Warp Pads in a world, and tend to appear at the world's entrance, near [[Humba Wumba]]'s [[Wumba's Wigwam|wigwam]], and near [[Mumbo Jumbo]]'s [[Mumbo's Skull|skull]]. There are only three worlds that don't have five Warp Pads:


* [[Cloud Cuckooland]] and [[Cauldron Keep]] have only two each.
While [[Banjo]], [[Kazooie]], [[Mumbo Jumbo]] and most of [[Humba Wumba]]'s [[transformation]]s can use Warp Pads, certain characters cannot, such as the [[Golden Goliath]], [[T-Rex Banjo|Daddy T-Rex Banjo]] and [[Washer Banjo]]. Some also cannot warp to specific pads, such as Mumbo Jumbo going to [[Wumba's Wigwam]] in [[Glitter Gulch Mine]] and [[Submarine Banjo]] going to the town plaza of [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]].
* [[Isle o' Hags]] has [[Silo]]s instead of Warp Pads. The main difference is that there are seven Silos and Mumbo cannot use them.


Warp Pads reappear in ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'' as large golden pads only appearing in [[Showdown Town]] rather than in the worlds. Their function has not changed, but they can only be used while in a vehicle.

== Users and restrictions ==
When the pads are active, almost anyone can use them. This includes [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] (alone or together), Mumbo Jumbo, and nearly all of Wumba's transformations. However, there are a few exceptions:
 
* The [[Golden Goliath]] ignores the pads.
* Mumbo is not allowed to warp to the Warp Pad inside Wumba's Wigwam in [[Glitter Gulch Mine]]. This may be a technical restriction due to the cutscene that must play when Mumbo enters.
* The [[submarine]] is not allowed to warp to the (above-water) pad near the entrance to [[Jolly Roger's Lagoon]]. This has been presumed to be a technical issue as he would become too immobile without any form of water around him. The reverse is true for Kazooie and Mumbo not being able to warp to any pads under the water, as they aren't programmed to swim under the water.
* The [[T-Rex Banjo|daddy T-Rex]] is too large to use the Warp Pads.
* Because of a factory rule, [[Washer Banjo]] may not use the Warp Pads. The [[Clinker (speaker)]] orders him to use the service elevator instead.
 
Warp Pads tend to be optional; you almost always have the option to ignore them and walk the long way. However, ''Banjo-Tooie'' requires so much backtracking, and so many repeat visits to Mumbo's and Wumba's, that the Warp Pads provide a very important shortcut around annoyances and frustration.
 
There are at least a few cases where the Warp Pads are truly necessary, and provide the only way to reach a [[Jiggy]].
 
* In [[Terrydactyland]], Banjo must use the [[Taxi Pack]] to carry the largest baby to [[Terry]]. Banjo has no way to climb the mountain, because he cannot use the [[Springy Step Shoes]], so Banjo must go the easy way by warping to the top. If Banjo gets the baby pteradactl from inside the mountain last however, he doesn't need to use the warp pads, as he can go through the top exit to Terry's nest.
* In [[Grunty Industries]], the Warp Pads are the only way for Mumbo Jumbo to leave floor 3. Mumbo must warp because his [[Mumbo Pad]]s are on floors 2 and 4.
 
Warp Pads also enable a few other tricks. For example, to rescue the [[Jinjo]] at the entrance to Terrydactyland, one must first [[Grenade Eggs|grenade]] the switch on the pillar to open the cage. The presumably intended way to collect it is to use the world's [[Flight Pad]], but one can also use the Springy Step Shoes found near Wumba's Wigmam to reach the Jinjo by using the Warp Pad to warp to the world entrance.

Warp Pads are pads used to teleport certain characters to specific locations of a world instantly, making navigating through it easier.

History

Banjo-Tooie

Warp Pad.png

In Banjo-Tooie, there are usually five Warp Pads in each world, with the exceptions being Cloud Cuckooland and Cauldron Keep, which only have two, and the Isle O' Hags which has Jamjars' Silos instead. Warp Pads need to be stepped on in order to be activated and used by pressing B Button while on them.

While Banjo, Kazooie, Mumbo Jumbo and most of Humba Wumba's transformations can use Warp Pads, certain characters cannot, such as the Golden Goliath, Daddy T-Rex Banjo and Washer Banjo. Some also cannot warp to specific pads, such as Mumbo Jumbo going to Wumba's Wigwam in Glitter Gulch Mine and Submarine Banjo going to the town plaza of Jolly Roger's Lagoon.

“Alas, No. The warp system is built to transport vehicles. Not of bunch of animals running on foot like. Well... like animals. Hop back into your Trolley and try again”
Lord of Games, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts

In Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, Warp Pads can be found throughout Showdown Town. They look very different from their previous appearance, being large and golden. They can only be used while on the Trolley, and attempting to use them while on foot will simply make the Lord of Games tell Banjo to use them while on the vehicle.
