'''Whomp's Fortress''' is the second course but is often completed first in speedruns. It can be accessed from the painting in the room located on the right side of the lower first floor of Princess Peach's castle. One power star is needed to access it without a [[RTA Guide/Lobby Backwards Long Jump|lobby BLJ]].

== Tips ==
==== Notes ====
* If collecting every star, make sure to do [[Chip Off Whomp's Block]] second to last and [[To the Top of the Fortress]] last. This will minimize the lag experienced from the fortress and also prevent the owl in the tree from getting in your way
 
* If you aren't doing [[Fall onto the Caged Island#Owlless | Owlless]], then do the same order but with [[Fall onto the Caged Island]] last. This will minimize lag from the tower but still make the owl available to use.
# If you aren't doing [[RTA Guide/Fall onto the Caged Island#Owlless | Owlless]], then move [[RTA Guide/Fall onto the Caged Island|Fall onto the Caged Island]] to the end. This will ensure you don't spawn the owl for when doing any other stars.
# If collecting every star, make sure to do [[RTA Guide/Chip off Whomp's Block|Chip Off Whomp's Block]] second to last and [[RTA Guide/To the Top of the Fortress|To the Top of the Fortress]] last. This will minimize the lag experienced from the fortress and also prevent the owl in the tree from getting in your way.

==Star Select Info==
There are three acts of the course that can appear by selecting different stars. Keep in mind that if there are any blue stars (uncollected) present in the star selection menu, then the last version that can be selected is the first blue star and not the stars after it:
* '''Act 1 - King Whomp''': Accessed by selecting Star 1. This version contains King Whomp at the top of the course.
* '''Act 2 - Tower''': Accessed by selecting Star 2. This version contains a fortress built on top of the course.
* '''Act 3 - Owl and Bob-omb Buddy''': Accessed by selecting Star 3 through Star 6, but only after completing [[RTA Guide/Chip off Whomp's Block|Chip Off Whomp's Block]] and [[RTA Guide/To the Top of the Fortress|To the Top of the Fortress]]. The Bob-omb buddy is present to open the cannon, and an owl can be summoned from the tree near the starting point. The fortress is still present.
