A small suggestion to the passive tree.

When we don't need Agility (+30 to Dexterity), we can reach the left side of the tree over Minion Attack and Cast Speed + Intelligence nodes instead of the 2 Intelligence nodes near Agility.

This gives us +4% minion attack/cast speed in exchange for 10 Intelligence.

That means an extra skill point has to be spent there, that's why i didn't prefer that path.

No extra points needed. Here, this is from your tree. You can also check mine to see what I mean.

You would have to remove an intelligence node on your left upside to get the intelligence node you are connecting your life to
and then minion as cast speed is another point cost to get there.

He's suggesting you swap x2 intelligence nodes for x1 intelligence and x1 AS node.

This trades 20 intelligence for 10 intelligence and 4% AS.
It's the same amount of points. Just different places to connect the tree.

I see melding of the flesh on your char but there almost no cold resist on any of your gear. What am I missing?

I been reading about Melding of the Flesh and I just don't understand it. I don't have PoB. I see your char has max cold resist of like 88? so don't you still have to spec all resistances to 88 with gear and tree?

I am doing a version my friend recommended right now, I have a flask with mageblood with increased effect with elemental resists, it covers most of my resists that has been reduced by melding.
My resists are 90 atm

Hello there!
Been trying to use skelemages as my secong league char, and while the gameplay seemed nice, I was getting just randomly stomped offscreen by... something. The game never tells you, so I got no idea honestly, even simply alched t16 maps with non-killer mods were occasinally deleting me, despite the fact that I had 5k life, 1k es, and lvl25+ skellies with selfcrafted +1 wand, +3 helm, +1 ammy and all the moderate stuff were doing very, VERY poor damage to any yellow monster. Harvest were immortal and thats it.

So just before giving up on skellies I decided to sell some stuff I had, and invested in your build variation. I do trust the author when they have lvl100 on the same build this league.
And damn its so much better.. I did spend quite a fortune, got a new wand for ~10ex and a decent enough helmet for the new gem setup. Spent about 30ex total including fully decked out AG.
Died once in the span of 3 levels, cause I just stood still for a minute while skellies mowed through t16 deli+essence+strongbox+pandemonium sentinel.
So a big thank you for the amazing defences and offences, I feel like Im really gonna push it a bit further and will attempt bosses and invitations now.
Also now Im completely broke.

Any advice on what should I watch out next for in terms of upgrades?
I thought about getting new rings, but getting an uset and then trying to fix my resists is going to cost me 5ex+ more, which I dont have, Im super bad at currency farming.
