Before anyone takes this too seriously, this is strictly based off of the original Buzzsaw Build I put together back in 2.1.1 and then updated for 2.1.2, which by happenstance ended up on the front page here. This build is in no way going to take you to the top of the leaderboard, but if you're a fan of the chakram skill and like a bit of diversity, I put together Version 3 of this build with a bit of flair for fun.
_
The new Unhallowed Essence set really brings the chakrams a boost in damage. The Spines of Seething Hatred is needed for this to work, but it's not showing up in the selection menu for me to select it. Keep in mind that you want to have Max Discipline on Bow, Quiver, and Chest piece generally above all other stat priorities due to the way UE works.

Paragon Priorities

Core

Movement Speed
Primary Stat
Vitality
Maximum Resource

Offense

Critical Hit Damage
Critical Hit Chance
Attack Speed
Cooldown Reduction

Defense

Resist All
Life
Armor
Life Regeneration

Utility

Area Damage
Life on Hit
Resource Cost Reduction
Gold Find

The basics for most builds, however CDR is not as important and spamming Chakrams is a bit more fun for this build, so IAS before CDR. Not required, but just for fun

Build Guide

Again, not intended for leaderboard climbing, nor is this even the best chakram rune you can use, but for fun and out of sheer enjoyment, I present to you version 3 in a much different manner. I took a bit of lighthearted fun with the video, however this guide should be sufficient since it's basically swapping out one rune for another. Hope you all enjoy!
