Chaotic Feedback, like almost all enchanter nukes, does indeed have a 0-second stun component, also called an interrupt. It will interrupt spellcasting, but the mob will keep attacking and so on.
Unfortunately, the fact that the spell has a damage component and a stun component means the target gets two chances to resist the spell. If it resists either the stun or the damage component, then the entire spell is resisted. Therefore, this spell will be resisted twice as often as normal nukes.
Also, bear in mind some mobs are immune to stun and mez (giants, dragonkin, Phinny’s upper seahorse guards, spite golems). None of the chaotic feedback line will land on them.
I think enchanters get a nuke without stun at...54?
Also note that a resisted spell actually creates more aggro than a successful spell. So as you can guess, this doubly-resistable spell will rip aggro a lot. Hence the mischievous troll post about casting this if you don’t die after tashing and slowing a big meanie. This will probably seal the deal if you need a break from spamming clarity and haste.
