I am currently trying to decide if I should (with my future skelemancer) go for skeleton mages, or do skeleton, skeleton mastery, and poison nova+synergies.Skeleton Mages aren't all that good; they hardly do any damage in Hell difficulty.
A Skeletonmancer doesn't need good equipment to be able to progress; I'm sure 20 Raise Skeleton / 20 Mastery would get you through Hell difficulty (with some help from a Mercenary, that is). The only thing you'd need is some serious Lightning resistance; Gloams really hurt and their bolts pierce your...err... bone shields :P
