What chapter are you on?  You ought to have Aegaeon by now, no?  He has Ancient Wisdom.  Just equip him and up Ancient Wisdom on Dromarch.  Also, try opening some core crystals, some of the rares have it.   

For pouch items, just grab a whole bunch at all the vendors and try them.  You don't actually have to use their favorite, just something close to it, like favorite food group.  And just spam it, don't bother letting it do its cooldown thing.  It counts the moment you put the item in the pouch.  

Check and see how many of your blades have ancient wisdom.  If so, equip them to their driver.  Honestly, if you have Aegaeon by now, you shouldn't have an issue here I don't think.  

Oh and to make the whole ancient wisdom thing easier, I strongly advise breaking off from the main story at some point in chapter 8 or right before 9 to go get Poppi's third form.  She gets Ancient Wisdom and can be a serious boost for Tora.

I have Aegeon but none of the unspecified insect items it says I need for Ancient Wisdom. Meanwhile the skill circle with Level 3 won't even unlock on Dromarch.

You have to raise Dromarch's trust I believe.  That is easiest with questing, main or side.

But are you positive you have gone the right way?  I mean really sure?  I don't recall running into this kind of barrier.  The worst I had was a wind and earth mastery that was easily achieved.
