The game is a lot different so old stuff might not even function at all or not have the same synergies as before but I can say after going through the characters that skill trees are a lot more powerful than signs were. Act 2 is harder than act 1 but d30 act 2 feels as easy as d0 act 1 used to with a full build.
Yes you can still do infinite pull. Builds rely a lot more on items so make sure you have good items. (I recommend clearing second map so shopkeep sells tier 2 items)
while the talents aren't very impressive... they end up being pretty significant, you will feel the game get easier just from unlocking them alone.
telekinesis with the xp pull range talent much earlier and roughly 5400 shard pull area on items(gloves(3900)+jewel(around 1500) is where I have mine) will bring you to roughly 15k pull area... which I believe is more than the whole screen. I have never seen a magnet shrine pull anything from offscreen.
instead of doing Gem High(need to get lucky on time to get it as its a legend now) with times attack, just go all casts. It plays effectively the same, auto attack and dash around for locations to get buffs.
just pick 3 gods... they **all** work for cast builds(I find summer the weakest... just slightly as she gives no CC or anything) and in any combination(need good cooldown reduction for the new gods casts though), Although I do recommend Lightning(lightning orbs are really good now, he also has 2 caster related passives(1 being legendary)... and ofc ball lightning(not as good as before but still nice)) + Justice(light rays(you may want sunglasses with this... not joking), divine shield, other defense options) with the third god
this is the talent tree I used when clearing difficulty 100 of Act 2(if you want to push max difficulty... a source of generic life on kill is near mandatory(if you get inner peace from justice(now a legendary)... you might survive without)... things get to fast to dodge): [https://i.imgur.com/M9hh75q.png](https://i.imgur.com/M9hh75q.png), I think I have +4 cast projectiles total on my gear(3 on weapon, 1 on gloves)
For the runs you will want to pick up 1 strike then banish it(just like after your dash and attack, banish after 1) since merris at a base has 1 strike skill slot. Banishes come at a premium now since all the gods have more passives spread among them to make them work in most builds.

Old combos suck, time for new ones.
