The Cursed Scythe rune for Grim Scythe now has a 100% chance to apply a curse and you deal 150~200% increased damage to cursed enemies. (Necromancer Only)
Question: Does this benefit Skeletal Mages?
It affects EVERY enemy that has a curse applied to it, but Scythe of the Cycle is generally the best weapon for Skeletal Mage builds.
I was planning on using both: One equipped, other cubed.
Or is there a better combo for a LOD Mage build (for farming bounties).
Shadowhook in the cube should be better since with permanent Reservoir, your Essence pool should be big enough to give a larger bonus than Trag’s Fang. If you use poison mages, Nayr’s is clearly a larger buff, but I can’t remember if the poison rune on Skeletal Mage is viable to use.

If you equip Razeth’s Volition shoulders (LoD Mages should) which grants Singularity rune, it should make Contamination rune (poison) a viable option.

Incorrect. That “(Necromancer only)” only denotes that the legendary power is only available for the necro and not for any other class. Just like any other class specific power.
Trag’Oul’s Corroded Fang does buff pet damage.
