I have a question about Intellect. Apparently my early responses to Doyle were really terrible choices.

They resulted in these stats-
Valor 0.2
Wisdom 0
Compassion 0.1
Diligence 0.2
Virtue 0.1
Charisma 0
Cowardice 0
Imprudence 0.2
Bloodlust 0.2
Sloth 0
Avarice 0.1
Coldness 0
I didn't check these stats until I was several hours into the game and I decided not to start over as everything seemed to be going well... until now. These are the Intellect statuses of my characters
Sky 1
Monique 1
Leo 1
Cloe 1
Lala 1
Elwyn 1
Lance 1
Maire 70
Hiram 115
Ananda 167
Again, I wasn't minding those intellect statuses of a measly 1. The intellect couldn't even be increased by equip adjustments or even Think Ups. But battles were and are going well. The later additions, Maire, Hiram, Ananda, can have their intellect affected by equip adjustments and Think Ups. But, I now have a problem, and I don't know whether it's related or not.
Lance, Ananda and Maire have just found their respective shards. However, no matter how many times they cast element spells, the integrations remain at 0. I didn't have any trouble with the others integrating to 100, Sky even to 200 with his B shard, but these 3 simply aren't learning a thing. Can you give me any insight as to what I can do to promote integration? I hate to restart just because Doyle gave me awful stats, and I'm not even sure that's related as the others could all integrate with just the Intellect of 1. I'm very frustrated.
In case you need these
In case you need them-
Valor 531.4
Wisdom 168.3
Compassion 361.2
Diligence 232.0
Virtue 204.1
Charisma 197.3
Cowardice 1.0
Imprudence 187.2
Bloodlust 437.4
Sloth 87.1
Avarice 197.4
Coldness 92.9
Oh..... Wait...... I just got a deja vu about having this problem before. Sure enough, I advanced to a new land and fought new enemies and sure enough, integration is happening!

Still, I'd like to know if having a 0 in Wisdom and Compassion is going to permanently bar me from completing skills/quests/etc.
