Skeletons will survive hell fine if you have good gear. If not, you just might have to teleport back to first town during a few boss fights to get reinforcements.
The main problem for any necro build in hell is dammage. It will take you FOREVER to get through the smallest battles if you don't have good gear. On the other hand, summoners are very laid back. Most of the time you just walk into a place, watch some TV and wait for your skeletons to clear the place.
If you have good gear, hell is a breeze for summoners. Diablo will still be a pain in the arse, but the other bosses dont do so well. I have lvl 37 mastery on my summoner, and I didn't lose a single skeleton to baal(i lost like 5 mages though).
Summoner is the best necro build for pvm. People will love you for your skeletons.
