skyshrine legs are very good before raid gear and will have eternal value for the clicky

skyshrine arms are the best arms in the game aside from spirit-wracked cord

there is no reason to get thurgadin/kael pieces unless you simply want the bracers or legs in your bag for the clicky

The Skyshrine legs are just too low on base AC to be good despite the HP. The Kael legs have more value and their lower weight does give them an edge over Oiled Greaves despite the loss of AC.

The Skyshrine Arms are really not better than Kael, which has Ac4 more for a loss of Hp10 and Sta3. So at most 22hp for 6AC worn. Of course the Skyshrine are considerably easier to faction for.
