Is Linux and WoW like oil and water?

I'm running this on a laptop with a 4070. I'm getting like 7fps in something I should be getting in the hundreds of fps with.

Then I rebooted and it's like the whole thing disappeared. I'm not a full linux guy... Yet.

Any advice would be appreciated. I was using Nobara.

Make sure the game uses your actual GPU and not the integrated one.

Use lutris or bottles to set up and install battle.net automatically, from there install the game as you would under windows. Works just fine for me.
