How to Start the Misfortune on a Workday Quest in Wuthering Waves
The quest begins in the Exiles' camp, located in Gubei Pass. To trigger it, players must first clear out all the enemies near a small pond in the southern part of the camp.
After defeating these enemies, look for a capsule in the area. Inside is an engineer from the Ministry of Development. Interacting with him starts the quest.

Escort the Engineer
Once the quest starts, the engineer will exit the capsule. The next task is to escort him to safety. This involves:
- Following the engineer
- Defeating groups of Exiles along the way
- Reaching the riverside destination
The Exiles encountered during this escort mission aren't particularly tough. Most players should be able to handle them without much trouble.
At the riverside, talk to the engineer again. This triggers a brief cutscene after which the NPC disappears. However, the quest isn't over yet.
