worst I can think of in about 5 minutes of thought is the spaulder from la mulana. it's an upgrade that adds an afterimage to your weapon swings, the afterimages do 1 damage if you hit an enemy with them. This doesn't sound that bad, except:

1) The good weapons in the game all deal upwards of 5 damage, so 1 damage is sort of useless
2) The majority of enemies, including all bosses, have i-frames for a short time after being hit

In practice, the upgrade essentially does nothing since you hit them with the weapon and then they i-frame through the afterimage. Although sometimes if you or the enemy is moving, you'll hit with the afterimage first, they'll i-frame through the main weapon, and you'll cut your damage by like 80%

I'd go so far as to say the upgrade is an overall net negative
