This problem occurs to me only in large scale fights of ~30 vs 30 in WvW. I have never seen it in low scale or “skill-lag-scale” fights, neither in PvE at all.

What happens?
-> I use Feedback on some guy inside the enemy zerg and lots of projectiles are reflected as expected, indicated by dmg numbers. After approximately 1 second it teleports me over a max possible range of 1200 (Feedback cast range) to my target i cast the Feedback on. Usually this results in standing inside the enemy crowd.

Reproducible?
-> As i said, this only occurs in large scale WvW fights, but so far it is not predictable for me. It happens randomly and for 1 of 10 Feedback uses at large scale conditions on average. I use GS as weapon, [Blink, Null Field, Feedback] as utility skills and Time Warp. It is independent of my graphics and sound settings.

I try to catch this bug on video, but i have not been lucky yet. Maybe you have similar issues with this skill or any further experience/information.

It already happened to me, i think it is due to the Necro DS skill #2, it teleport the caster to the target, but because the projectile is reflected, you become the caster and you are teleported on the middle of the zerg.

There was something similar with the thief D/P skill #3, but this skill is now unblockable and thus unreflectable.

This is correct. Several months ago there were patch notes saying that dark path is now unblockable to prevent this from happening, but Anet is very bad at actually doing things they intend to do, so that never actually got changed.
