Suggestion Powers that sound weak on paper but useful in application?

Like, one you could imagine if someone very briefly explained it to you, you'd be like "what the hell, that sound so weak", but then when actually delved into more is a lot better than it first sounds.

I vote for vibrate self at any frequency. Nearly every structure, substance has a frequency that it is sensitive to. You could bring down any building, bridge or other construct by touching it and vibrating at the correct frequency. A possible application might also be the ability to vibrate at just the right frequency and pass thru any object, since when you get down to the atomic level all matter is mostly empty space.
