Close the game and find this folder.

....\Cryptic Studios\Neverwinter\Live\Localdata

Find file: Gameprefs.Pref

Open the file with Notepad++

Find this line: PrefEntry GfxSettings.DefaultFov

Change the numerical value to something higher. (Default should be 55, wouldn't really go higher than 90ish)

I run mine at 70, which feels comfortable for me: http://i.imgur.com/Qufq0I8.jpg
Here is an example from reddit, someone running at 90: http://i.imgur.com/qUkN51d.jpg

Oh my god, greatest info ever. Thanks.

Hmm... i did all the steps and even recheck tried 90 then 80 and back to 55..
They all look the same.

I restart client etc.

Anyone having the same problem?

I'm having the same problem. Is there a step were missing?

I try to find the reddit post to see if anyone have a solution or same problem; but can't seem to find it .

"ProTip: to get the game to recognize the new FoV, press 'B' to enter the view mode where you can scroll the mouse to zoom, then when you press 'B' to exit the FoV will be what you set it on.
90 is WAY too high for me... but I am excited that you found this hack. Now to experiment!
There are tons of extra options you can edit in that prefs file, by the way, such as MAX FRAMERATE :)"

Hah I noticed the MaxFramerate as well, def made it higher.

Edit: Hitting B after changing Fov didn't do anything for me.

Ah yeh my bad, press the B key and everything should work out.

Check your game prefs again and make sure it saved correctly.
