I've always wondered, Stalker Skill Caps

Why do stalkers get master poisoning, but only advanced brew?

Because they're better at poisoning than they are at brew.  When the classes were created in.. 2015?  Whatever year it was, that's what the person decided they should get.  I don't mean to be snarky, but that's really the 'why', there's not much more to it.  Could we re-evaluate?  Sure.

Poisoning was looked at as a "survival" skill.  Thus, max was with the survival classes, with the cap dropping off the more away from survival towards combat or merchantile one got.

Brew was looked at as a "crafting" skill.  Thus the max was with the heavy Merchantile classes, with the cap dropping off the more away from merchantile one gets.
