I think if he summoned 30 skeletons, he would definitely feel drained of stamina, enough so that it would be difficult to get under Percy's guard, even while he fought off the skeletons. If there was water nearby as well Percy would easily be able to destroy a few dozen skeletons with a blast of water, or revitalise himself after finishing off the skeletons in water, before fighting Nico.

Tho if Percy is able to form a hurricane the skeletons can’t do anything against him. In the son of Neptune he fought and held off around hundred undead regenerating demigod legionaries (who pretty certainly had an amp from the eagle standard). Any amount of skeletons that nico summons would get slapped. It's simple: If Percy can use water he wins. If he can't he loses.
