Strange. My mages have not had many problems with being targeted by the enemy, except in cases like the Hook Horror cave, where you're often surrounded by the critters (of course, by then, my mages go in with invis, so it's no trouble).
Maybe it's party formation? I almost always use the 2 by 2 arrangement, with mages in the rear. It's worked well for me in all modes of play.
