How to improve playability of GW2

I sometimes want to play a bit GW2, but nowadays I haven't been able to do much.

I have somewhat updated hardware that I have tried to play it on
Ryzen 2600
32GB Ram
160 GB SSD Cache for 2TB HDD
RTX 2060
Kernel 5.0.6
Nivida driver: 418.56

I get a whopping 23 fps, CPU and Graphics card hardly have any load at all, this while in game graphics settings are on the lowest possible setting or if possible disabled. Being near a wall with no movement around, I can get 43 fps. No difference if it's the 64 or 32 bit client I use.
I have the UseGLSL and CSMT set to (dword) 1 (using regsz and write enabled even music starts to be struggling)

Any suggestions on making the game more playable, specially so that you can take part in world events like fighting together with others against a boss.
Anyone tried to use the VK9 driver for D3D9 support?

What OS are you running or I guess I should ask what linux you are running

I'm going to start with the basics assumptions

You have enable the 32-bit packages
Installed Vulkan and have verify that Vulkan is running on your linux system
Have installed DXVK in your GW2 bottle and have enabled it

here's the link to DXVK just in case

I'm going to make a big assumption that VK9 is some type of DXVK or Vulkan for Direct X 9
