Me and you are in a completely different time period than those starting out now, we had our time to be allowed to easily skip upgrades, these newer players lost their chances when the weapon have changed the damage formula. We already avoided this though, so we was able to cheap the game by using only stats to get by with low level weapons then boosting till we can get a high level weapon before that update, the bow you talking about is really low level, if they had tried that now, it be hard as heck to achieve anything.
If the upgrade they need is at petropolis, it is a bit of a problem but I suppose they can live, it just the train ride wait, real annoying if you just barely missed the train.
