What we also might get is the War Mill to have one of our 3 weekly bonus rolls for free as I have read somewhere that they seem to be quite costly. There are a few options how to get them (Apexis Crystals, Gold, Honor points, Garrison resources, War Mill) but each of those is just useable once per week.
Jewelcrafters building... idk. Not tested personally yet. I've done lots of dungeons on the beta and only ever seen one socketed item drop (a trinket), so I have no idea if this actually would pay off. However, loot tables are not fully implemented yet, so it remains to be seen.
Enchanting and/or Alchemy building seems to be nice to have as well. Also the Lumber Mill might get quite important at the beginning for having a better supply on resources.
