    you can just run battlenet through steam:

    • add the installer as non-steam game
    • set compatibility to proton experimental
    • launch/install
    • find the filepath for the battlenet .exe
    • change the filepath for the target of the battlenet installer to the .exe instead
    • never touch it again; it just works!

    a tiny bit of effort, but only required once. everything afterwards just works!

      This worked immediately for me. I did have to change the install path because it still thought I had a Z drive for some reason… I do want it to work not on steam but if I can play WoW on Linux in the interim I’m happy lol
