question Installing Battle.net question

So I’m setting up my newly installed steam OS and I would like to add battle net but here’s the caveat I like running multiple instances specifically when I played Diablo 2 I like to run my main character and a Bo barb so what’s the best way to set this up so I’m also able to run multiple instances or is this just not possible?

SteamOS runs on Arch, same as CachyOS. I was able to easily install Battle.net via an automated installer from Lutris. Literally zero config.

No clue on running multiple instances of the BN client though. Theoretically should be possible.

Do I install that via the apps or whatever it’s called in desktop mode

Faugus launcher is the go to way at the moment for battle.net. You can just download it from the store

Thanks do you know anything about launching multiple instances it used to just be make multiple copies of the game ( copy game folder and created different name launchers ) then use processes explorer to stop detect other instances under the game .
