Lol, just go desktop mode and slap Battle.net on it using Proton. Then, it's WoW time, baby! Might need to fiddle with Proton settings to get it smooth though. Good luck!

First off, you gotta use the Desktop Mode on your Steam Deck. Then, you'll wanna install Windows or just head straight to installing the Battle.net launcher through Proton (a compatibility layer for running Windows apps on Linux). After that, simply download and install WoW like you would on a regular PC. Remember, WoW ain't officially supported on SteamOS, so a little patience might be needed to tweak settings for optimal performance.

Honestly, just dual-boot Windows if you can. Makes life easier for WoW and anything else not officially on Steam.

I've been running WoW on my Steam Deck for months. Proton's the way to go. A bit of tweaking here and there, but it runs surprisingly well, even on raids!
