Glad to know that you like things in ToS. Actually, PMer-like role isn't hard to design, a lot of action RPG game out there have been serving inspiration, and it can be adapted very easily. The challenging matter is that ToS has relatively simple mechanism, things wouldn't run far from the existing attributes where most of role have been possessing, no matter how glamorous the abilities are phrased, often resulting overlapping in game impact.

Although I'm not stopping anyone from making something similar to expansion-exclusive role, but I'm not that optimistic with it. Balance reason aside, it's a business. BMG is promoting DLC in the name of "new 15 roles, new faction", and people are paying to play those roles because the unique mechanic has been the attraction. If another similar attraction appear in the classic role, what else make those Coven-exclusive role unique? Why bother purchasing DLC when things can be found in classic. Meanwhile, BMG announced that None of the Coven roles (meaning all 15 roles in the expansion) are going to be added to classic. I doubt that BMG is going to spark any controversy by implementing similar mechanic to classic.
