Considering some players may have trouble completing all the objectives of this quest, this article explains how you can easily complete the Traces of ChromaWorld Quest in Genshin Impact 5.8.

Genshin Impact Traces of Chroma Quest Location and How to Start

To begin the Traces of Chroma World Quest in Genshin Impact, you must teleport to the Teleport Waypoint located at the Easybreeze Market in the Easybreeze Holiday Resort region, added to the title in version 5.8. Once you’re there, tread towards south until you come across an NPC named “???” staring at a wall. There will also be a “No Vandalization…” speech bubble over him, which can help you identify the NPC.

Get close and interact with the character first, and then indwell an Asha, found beside the building’s entrance, and paint the wall the NPC is staring at. This will trigger a cutscene where the NPC will introduce him as Cozatl, thus beginning the quest.

Go to the Cafe and Paint It

Once the cutscene ends, you will have to go to a cafe just opposite the location where you met Cozatl. Here you will come across two other NPCs, named Zolin and Alvo. The former is a student of Cozatl, and you must help him paint the cafe according to his instructions. Once the interaction with the two NPCs ends, you will automatically be transformed into an Asha and can begin painting the areas marked by the dotted pattern.
