I am doing the drk quest to unlock. I am on my 22war. skill cap for GS is suppose to be 65. It has me capped at 7. Is this because of the Chaosbringer being equipped or something else?

You're attacking lvl1 mobs. The cap for skill ups is your targets level, even if your true cap is 200+ levels higher.

Edit: Try changing gear/zones if the number is blue.

If it's showing as blue in your combat skills, sometimes it bugs, just need to unequip and re-equip and should fix it.

FWIW the skill cap bug often happens if you gain a combat skill against a mob and that combat skill happens to put you at the cap for that given mob.*

At least that is my experience skilling up on steelshells. They will take you to character level 74 skill caps at best (depending on the level of the crab)

*Slight mechanics backstory - You gain skill for actions taken against a mob dependent on the mobs level. I.e. if you attack a level 30 mob all day long, the highest your skill will get is the skillcap for your job/weapon combination at level 30.

For the sake of this bug, let's say you are level 10 fighting a level 5 mob with an A+ skill weapon. A+ skill weapons cap at Level*3+3 pre level 60(?).
You hit this level 5 mob and gain the last .1 to move from 17 to 18. Awesome! Getting stronger!
Unfortunately you don't realize that your skill has accidentally turned blue and you murder a bunch of level 6,7,8 level mobs with no skill ups.

Fortunately I've never seen this happen with a puppet...so there that

Edit: Also, yes, change gear that makes your char re-render (visible gear) to reset it
