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. | Warp Pads tend to be optional; you almost always have the option to ignore them and walk the long way.

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. | ||
