WoEs

[Alhanelem]

You're wasting your time in WoE if you're solo starting from 0 coins. Go to Abyssea.

Go to abyssea and do what? buy drops from other groups? I don't know any weapons that can be soloed up to the weaponskill by anyone.

If you are going to be soloing WoE without a group from scratch for a weapon, you're better off doing Abyssea, getting a group to kill NMs and slowly working your way up to the Empyrean.

It isn't like XI has anything else to offer atm other than Abyssea - it's where most people are.

Soloing coins by killing the trash mobs could keep you in WoE for months. The only time doing WoE is worth it is if you can clear chambers consistently and even that fails outside flux7 due to the randomness of coinpurses in the main pool.

Great Katana, Gun, Great Sword...
Carabosse - NIN/DNC
Cirein-croin - RDM, BLM, SCH all can solo it.

There you go and that's without brews.

With Luck I could see a NIN/DNC soloing Katana but Sobek tends to be a jerk a lot.

NIN/DNC solo triggers then PUG the NM or just PUG the triggers and have em change jobs for the NM. Its not hard to do and you can get a decent number of pops done per run if you PUG triggers+NM. If you're against PUGing it or asking your LS to help then that's your problem and you're making it artificially more difficult on yourself and it doesn't change the fact that WoE is a horribly implemented system and its much easier to get an empy if you actually use all the tools available to you instead of blatantly shunning them.
