Anybody has experience with GW2 on Linux? (lemm.ee)

So I finally bit the bullet, installed a second SSD and put Linux on it to test the waters. Tested out GW2 as a non steam game via Wine and while it runs, it runs very poorly with constant frame drops. Did anyone else try? How was your experience?

I have Nvidia GPU which I gather might be the most likely culprit but was interested in what your experience might've been.

GW2 runs fine but with occasional crashes on my system. I had trouble running instanced content with friends because I'd crash out and have trouble re-joining. It's fine for dailies and general fucking about.

Mint DE running through Steam with Proton on a 3080 with updated drivers. Issue is not limited to GW2, so I blame NVidia.
