Welcome to 2026! The age old question remains; how are you running Battle.net on Steam OS in Steam Deck?

I had an itch to try out the new class in D2. So I fired up the old Battle.net install that I previously had running through Lutris when D4's expansion came out. It's been a while, and something obviously changed with the Battle net launcher that it was broken in Lutris. I had to uninstall and reinstall numerous times through Lutris until it finally took properly.

Curious if lately others are simply installing it and running via Proton as a non-steam game that I can sidestep the Lutris process?

I saw there was NonSteamLaunchers via Decky Loader, but I couldn't figure out how to get it installed and it wasn't showing up in the plugin store when I searched for it. It was late so I didn't have enough time to dig further there. The Bible quotes also seemed weird in the git, but whatever, if it works I'd be willing to try.

I know where you're coming from but the price difference was $15 to just have it on steam so I said F it. I'm not using battle net otherwise ATM anyway
