I don't know about the damage from skele mages, but regular skeletons do about 40 damage each with 20 in mastery. 40*20=800 damage(not possible to be surrounded by that many of course, but still...) Anyway, assuming each monster gets hit by at most 5 skeles at a time, that's about 200 damage per second(about 1 chop per second?), cut to 100 in Hell difficulty(50% Global PR) Unless the skill gets ramped up for Hell(does it?) Mages probably do anywhere from 80-120% of that amount(again, I don't have the exact figures here) Unless you're facing an LEB, your skeles will probably survive.
