Hey guys, I don't know if this method has been mentioned for DV9K and GW2, but you can add a custom launch in Steam for GW2, and then add PROTON_USE_D9VK=1 %command% to the launch options. This should enable both DV9K and proton and lead to an FPS improvement. It seems to be much more stable in Guild Wars. I haven't had the chance to check it out in GW2.

I just used the Gw2-64.exe I don't think I tried it with the setup, but not sure why that wouldn't work.

You need to sign up for the steam beta (like so: https://fosspost.org/tutorials/enable-steam-play-on-linux-to-run-windows-games), then you can just add GW2 as a "non-steam" game. That was all I needed to do. I am not familiar with Lutris, but I hear you can use proton there now too.

I have been experimenting with using proton for running Guild Wars 2 and it seems to be working almost the same (if not better) than my wine installation. I would be interested to see if anyone else has had any problems using it recently. I have it running through steam, but I think you can do it through lutris now too.
