Super speed.
You're already fast enough to kill yourself by running into something or breaking a bone by punching something. Unless you had super durability you're just gonna kill yourself.
Hell even the friction between your feet and the ground would be like jamming your feet into a grinder.
Edit: This also applies for super strength. Without super durability the first time you used that strength it would rip all the muscles off your skeleton if not snap the bones outright.
As you say most special powers require other powers, like speedforce (in this case). Imagine laser vision that burns off your eyelids. Or thinking "Whoohoo I can fly!" and then as soon as you land you jam your femurs up through your chest cavity because your hip bones aren't up to touchdown.
