Unlikely I must say. Many Needless abiltiies, especially the combat ones, should logically suffer from severe blowback effects before they cause the least bit of harm to anyone else. Mio should have broken her fist punching her first steel wall (and even if she can hold up her bear/bunny/frog should have found it rather impossible to maintain her center of gravity), Kuchinashi should have poisoned herself with her own self-generated fragrances, the flame users should have burnt themselves, and so on. However, no one ever seems to suffer from blowback. Inducting from this will suggest that Needless are not only very tough, but their abilities will come with full protective and supportive measures (which presumably are copied / activated along). It thus follows that it would be rather hard to find some fragment to copy (actually, re-activate) that has a serious unattenuated side-effect.

That may be true. The strategy I came up with is a huge gamble and definitely can't be executed without first obtaining that kind of ability. But this is a huge world we are living in and Cruz will get to meet different kinds of people during his adventures. Who knows?
As tough as Needless are, they may have super secret forbidden move that requires huge sacrifice. If you played enough RPG games, there are some spells or moves that will handicap you once executed. Side-effects could come in various forms, even death (the Kamikaze move in FF8). Arclight's "ability amplify" trait will be his shortcoming if used incorrectly. This strategy will screw Arclight real bad and teach him not to rely on other people's abilities.
The "sound" ability featured in volume 0 is extremely broken. Its like Lelouch's geass ability through the victims' ears. If Cruz were to have an ability, this ability suits him as he can command people at his will and combine with his brains, hes gonna own every single battle. Cruz could probably say "Don't move!" or "kill yourself!" and Arclight is instantly owned (Unless the victim is deaf or Cruz can't speak).
