normally has 0.8 attacks time (1.25 APS), and gains base damage as they level up.

The Iron Mass overrides the skeletons' base damage, base attack speed, and base crit chance. An Iron Mass with 18% increased attack speed, 200% increased physical damage, and 30% quality has 1.53 attacks per second and 217.8 average damage per hit. This results in 333.2 DPS. This value does not scale with minion level. Factoring in the triple damage modifier, this is approximately 1000 DPS, converted to chaos damage via Unholy Might.

A level 20 Skeleton minion does ~1021.6 DPS by default, dealing physical damage.
