Okay I’ve read this a few places and was told by a friend that I could literally cut and paste Guild Wars 2 from one directory to another and be able to play it easily from say, the desktop shortcut or Steam shortcut (assuming I fixed the shortcut’s target)

Can I do this and not expect issues? I need to confirm dees.

Yes, you should be able to do this and not expect issues, the same applies for most MMOs including WoW. You’ll also need to make sure your new disk is formatted to NTFS because the game files are pretty large. GW2 saves your configurations into my documents folders, hence why you can move the data and exe files around your disk freely.
