Here we go, evil tactic #2214

Try using the boots of grounding + potion of insulation (I think that's what it was called) on your thief for great of protection from lightning. Fire resistance will also be helpful, you've got spells for that.
Make sure to put your party in a safe location.
Then go into stealth mode, or use invisibility, and walk up to the skeletons. If you position your character correctly, the lightningbolt springing from the traps will hit one or more of the skeletons, repeatedly. This will weaken or kill one or more of the skellies, after which you have your party advance to just beyond the range of the archers. Then attack the skeleton archers with your thief and charge in as you would normally.
