        There are a few ways but here’s my preferred method

        1. Desktop mode
        2. Install Lutris
        3. Search for battle.net in Lutris and install
        4. Launch battle.net
        5. Install Diablo 4 through battle.net

        There are a few guides around with more detail but it’s very straight forward. Also a few guides out there on how to maximize battery life. I get 2.5hrs or so, closer to 3 if I avoid towns.

          I would not recommend Lutris/wine for D4 since it tuns perfectly on Proton Experimental, at that point you are just introducing another layer of potential compatibility issues that are completely unnecessary. I tried using Lutris on launch day and it was a total headache with various components being incompatible.

          Just install the launcher in desktop mode and add it as a steam game, then set compatibility mode to Proton Experimental. Done.
