Have you tried running Heroic from the terminal? Do you get any error messages?
Yeah should have tried this from the start. Turned out the issue was just missing 32bit vulkan drivers, I guess those dependencies are included when running Lutris as a Flatpak, but with Heroic installed as a .deb I needed them to be system installed.
Anyway, problem solved, can happily play WoW again 😀
