Shaven,
Are you startng over or salvaging what you've got? 20 in Golem Mastery is a big point sink that you probably don't need. Anyway I maxed Skeletons, Mastery, and Mages in that order basically. I got my summon resist to 5 base, I have 2 base in revives (will shoot for 5) and 1 in CE and 1 in each curse.
I somewhat regret maxing mages. They work fine but they constantly get in my way by getting in the way of my skeletons. They seem to limit my skeletons' ability to swarm targets, and they definitely block them in doorways, creating tactical bottlenecks I have a hard time getting out of. Also, I regret not pumping CE more. It would be very useful to have 10 points in that skill, but I have 1. My next 9 points, if I continue playing this guy, will go toward CE. I'm level 75 in act 1 Hell right now.
In retrospect, I'd skip mages entirely and put those 20 points into something else. More than likely I'd pump CE to 10, and either Dim Vision or Attract to 10, so that my next 10 levels from 75 to 85 would just be shoring up things I like to make them better (Revive 5, more CE, or more of whichever curse I pump).
Anyway best of luck, sorry for chiming in late on the advice.
Mages do look cool though. :D
