^ Sspeed mission is not for chaos nyx. If you want to use nyx for speed run, you should use an on-and-off absorb build with moderate to higher power strength and with efficiency and duration mods for less energy consumption. Nyx may not be as good as Saryn or Equinox in speed run but she can be useful if mooded correctly.

Anyway, the change is that you can recast chaos when new enemies come into the radius since there are still enemies out of that 'large' radius, and you may want to recast it when entering new room(s) that has large suface and packed with enemies.

Moreover, a so-called negative duration with max efficiency will indeed brings in stunning casts with low energy cost per cast, however, as consecutive casting is required in order to have a satisfying result, large amount of energy is needed overall if the killing is not fast enough or low energy orbs dropping. If you are able to use weapons that can kill a group of enemies in one or two shots, e.g. tonkor, simulor, the stunning build might come in handy, if not, I suggest sticking back to the regular build for CC.

The regular build may somehow works better than stunning build, while CCing the enemies, you may (and possibly will) stay at a safer distance to kill the enemies with the least damage taking. If bringing stunning nyx with weapons that can't kill mutiple enemies at the same time, the remainning enemies will recover from the stunning effect quickly and keep damaging you, and may kill you easily if not careful enough, as stunning cast's targets are usually groups of (high-level) enemies.
