Getting Started

DIToolbox is a roster manager for Diablo Immortal clan PvP — Shadow War and Tower War — with player stats tracking and a build calculator. This section orients you: what your role can do, how to find each feature, and where to RSVP.

Reading this without an account

Everything here is free to read, and the tools are free to use — no account needed. Signing in with Discord is only what connects you to a clan: it is how a clan leader maps your Discord handle to your character, which is what puts you on rosters and lets you submit your stats. Actions restricted to clan managers are marked inline like this: Officers only.

The four roles

Every feature is gated by your role in the current clan. Roles are resolved automatically — there is no manual sign-up:

The main menu

The top navigation is a 2-tier menu: top-level sections that unfold to their options. Sections and options only appear when your role permits, so a member never sees Admin.

Deep-dives per area: → Shadow War, → Tower War, → Custom Events, → My Stats, → Admin & Officer Tools, → DI Calculator.

Header controls

Two controls live in the header regardless of which page you're on:

• Clan switcher — if you belong to more than one clan (or play multiple characters), switch the active clan here. Roles and menus re-resolve for whichever clan is active.
• Stats reminder — a color-coded button prompting your next weekly stats submission: green when there's time, orange as the deadline nears, red when overdue. Click it to submit. → More on stats submission

First sign-in

1

Sign in with Discord

Authentication is Discord OAuth. Once signed in, the app checks your clan membership.

2

Land on your clan (or onboarding)

If you belong to exactly one clan you go straight to its Shadow War roster. With several clans or characters you pick one; with none, you land on /start to create a clan or ask a leader to add you.

4

Explore from the menu

Use the top menu to reach Events, Stats, and (for officers) Admin. Visitors only see the DI Calculator until they join a clan.

How to RSVP for events

You do not RSVP inside DIToolbox. Availability comes from Discord: react / sign up in your clan's Discord event, and it syncs into the roster live (in real time). Officers then place available players onto teams.

For how officers turn availability into a roster, see → Shadow War and → Tower War. To understand tiers, roles, and scoring first, see → Game Mechanics and → Player Score.

Game Mechanics

The Diablo Immortal rules DIToolbox is built around — the two clan PvP events, character classes, roles, stats, and how availability syncs from Discord.

Where this fits

This section covers the game concepts only. For how to sign in, which role you get, and how to navigate the menu, see → Getting Started.

The Two Clan PvP Events

Diablo Immortal has two recurring clan PvP events. Each has its own roster manager in the app:

• Shadow War — a tiered, 12-game event. The clan fields 96 players across 4 point-value tiers. Player placement directly drives the war score.→ Shadow War Roster Manager
• Tower War (in-game: Accursed Towers) — an attack/defence siege with 1 attack team and up to 3 defence teams of 10 players each. No tiers, flat roster, players opt in by signing up.→ Tower War Roster Manager

Shadow War Structure

Shadow War is 12 games of 8 players (96 slots), grouped into 4 tiers. Higher tiers award more points per win:

Winning one game in every tier scores 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 15 points; winning all three games in all four tiers is the max of 45 points.

Tower War Structure

Tower War (Accursed Towers) is a flat event — no tiers and no aces. It has:

• 1 attack team of 10 players.
• Up to 3 defence teams of 10 players each.

Character Classes

Each player has a primary class. Class flavours skill kits and stat priorities, but does not restrict where a player can be placed in a roster:

Roles: DPS, Tank, Support

Every player has a role that decides which stats weigh most in their Power Score. The three roles emphasise stats differently:

• DPS — weights Armour Penetration and Potency up (×1.3), Armour and Resistance down (×0.6).
• Tank — the inverse: Armour and Resistance up (×1.3), Armour Penetration and Potency down (×0.6).
• Support — near-balanced (Potency and Resistance ×1.1, Armour and Armour Pen ×0.9).

Resonance always weighs ×1.0 regardless of role. The weighted average of the five stats is the score. → How scores are calculated

Secondary Stats

Four secondary stats define a character's combat profile. In PvP each one is compared against the opposing stat to produce a bonus or penalty:

Resonance

Resonance is the fifth stat and reflects overall gem investment. Unlike the four secondary stats it is not compared against an opponent — it is a pure power measure and weighs ×1.0 for every role.

Resonance uses its own tier brackets, different from the secondary-stat tiers:

Combat Rating

Combat Rating (CR) is Diablo Immortal's headline gear-power number. In the DI Calculator it maps to a final flat damage multiplier capped at 11.3%. It does not feed the roster Power Score (which is built from the five stats above). → DI Calculator

Availability & Discord Sync

Player availability is synced from the Discord bot live (pushed over a websocket, no polling). A player is in one of three states:

Player Score Calculation

Every player receives a 0–100 Power Score built from their five stats and weighted for their chosen role. It reflects how strong a build is for what that player is asked to do — a great DPS build can be a mediocre tank build.

Not sure what secondary stats or roles are? → Game Mechanics deep dive

How It Works

1. Each of the 5 stats is scored independently on a 0–100 scale using tier brackets with linear interpolation.
2. Each stat score is multiplied by a role weight (DPS, Tank, or Support). With no role recorded, Support weights are used, which weight every stat almost evenly.
3. The weighted scores are combined into a weighted average: sum of weighted scores ÷ sum of weights.
4. That final 0–100 number maps to an overall tier (Cub → Nephalem) and is rounded to 1 decimal.

Scoring a Single Stat

Within a tier bracket, a stat's score scales linearly between the bracket's minimum and maximum score:

score = scoreMin + (value − tierMin) ÷ (tierMax − tierMin) × (scoreMax − scoreMin)

Example: AP of 6,000 falls in the Titan bracket (5,500–7,000 → 70–85):

70 + (6000 − 5500) ÷ (7000 − 5500) × (85 − 70)
= 70 + (500 ÷ 1500) × 15
= 70 + 5.0 = 75.0

Secondary Stat Tiers

Armor, Armor Penetration, Potency, and Resistance share these brackets:

Resonance Tiers

Resonance uses different breakpoints and its own tier names:

Overall Score Tiers

The final 0–100 Power Score maps to a named tier:

Tier names are colour-coded in the UI: Cub gray, Hound blue, Beast green, Monster orange, Titan purple, Nephalem gold.

Role Weights

Your role determines which stats count more toward your score. → What are roles?

DPS rewards offence (AP + Potency); Tank rewards survivability (Armor + Resistance); Support is balanced with a lean toward Potency and Resistance. Resonance is always weighted 1.0. Sum of weights: DPS 4.8, Tank 4.8, Support 5.0.

Worked Example

The same stats — Armor 1,000 · AP 6,000 · Potency 6,000 · Resistance 1,000 · Resonance 3,000 — scored for all three roles:

Divide each column's weighted sum by the role's total weight:

DPS:     (9.0 + 97.5 + 97.5 + 9.0 + 36.7) ÷ 4.8 = 52.0
Tank:    (19.5 + 45.0 + 45.0 + 19.5 + 36.7) ÷ 4.8 = 34.5
Support: (13.5 + 67.5 + 82.5 + 16.5 + 36.7) ÷ 5.0 = 43.3

Identical stats, three very different scores — role weighting is what makes the difference.

Note: Resonance 3,000 sits in the Saint bracket (2,500–4,000 → 30–50): 30 + (500 ÷ 1500) × 20 = 36.7.

Where Your Power Score Shows Up

Reading it across the app

1

On roster cards

Each player card in Shadow War and Tower War shows the Power Score and its colour-coded overall tier, so officers can balance teams at a glance. → Shadow War

2

On the My Stats page

Your personal growth chart tracks Power Score over time, and the per-stat breakdown shows each stat's score, tier, weight, and weighted contribution. → My Stats

3

In the DI Calculator

The DI Calculator uses the same five secondary stats for detailed build simulation — enter your stats to compare gear, gems, and sets. → DI Calculator

Shadow War Roster

Shadow War is a tiered PvP event where the clan fields 12 games of up to 8 players each across 4 point-value tiers. Higher tiers award more points, so strategic player placement matters.

For tier structure, point values, restrictions, and how aces work: → Shadow War Tier Structure

Build a Roster (Step by Step)

The default landing page is the Shadow War scheduler: player pool on the left, the 4-tier game grid on the right.

1

Pick the war

Use the ← / → arrows to move between wars. The center pill shows the war date; if a schedule was already saved for that war it loads automatically, otherwise you start from an empty grid. Managers can type the opponent clan name in the vs. field beside the arrows. Managers only for editing the opponent name.

2

Review & filter the pool

Availability syncs live from Discord (real-time, no refresh). Narrow the pool with Search, Class, Availability, Role (aces / anchors), the low-attendance toggle, and the sort dropdown. All filters persist in your browser. See the Player Pool reference below.

3

Assign by click-to-place

Click a player in the pool (an amber ring appears), then click an empty game slot to place them. Click the selected player again then an occupied slot to swap. Remove a player with the × on their slot. If the selected player is ineligible for a tier, that tier's games highlight to show they can't be dropped there.

4

Or fill rooms with Quick add

Click ⛏ Quick add to fill one room at a time. The first room with a free slot becomes the target; each pool player you click drops into it and, when the room fills, it auto-advances to the next open room. Use Next room → to skip ahead, click a rostered player to remove them, and Stop to exit.

5

Or Auto-Distribute

Click Auto-Distribute to fill the whole grid at once. Choose a sorting strategy and a players-per-game setup, optionally hold back aces or filter by attendance, then click Apply Distribution. Full details in the Auto-Distribute section below.

6

Save the roster

Click Save to persist the roster to the server (shared across managers). Reuse it later by saving it as a template via Templates… (see Templates below).

7

Post to Discord

Click 📣 Post to Discord to publish the availability check, the roster, or a reminder. See the three post modes below.

Auto-Distribute

Auto-Distribute ranks the eligible pool by a strategy and fills each tier's rooms, spreading classes for diversity. Any player can go in any tier. Players who have never submitted stats are skipped (the modal says how many). In schedule mode it excludes unavailable players, and confirmed players take the available slots first — that decides who is rostered, never which tier they land in.

Player Pool: Filters & Sort

Sort options: Rating (high→low), Resonance, Name, Class, and Eligibility (high→low or low→high — most-restricted first or last). All filter and sort choices persist in localStorage across refreshes and war changes.

Tier Eligibility

Any player can be placed in any tier. Tier ceilings, alt characters and the new-player cooldown were all retired, so no slot is ever a blocked drop target.

Point values and the full tier table: → Shadow War Tier Structure

Game & Tier Controls

• Clear Game — empty a single game.
• Clear Tier — empty all games in a tier.
• Clear All — empty the entire roster.
• Sort: Score / Name / Class — reorders players for display only; the saved roster order is never mutated (so touch users don't mis-tap a reshuffling list).

Set a Briefing

Managers only Click Set briefing… to add per-war instructions (e.g. "Focus the healers. Bring CC. Meet 5 min early."). It's shown in the Discord roster post, between the intro and the event time. Once set, the button shows a 💬 and its tooltip previews the text.

Templates

Templates store player assignments for reuse — but not availability, dates, opponent, or briefing.

• From the scheduler, click Templates… to save the current roster as a template or load an existing one.
• The dedicated Templates page has a name field, Save Template, New Template, and a Load: dropdown; you can Auto-Distribute there too.
• Loading a template populates the current grid, leaving availability untouched.

Post to Discord

📣 Post to Discord opens one dialog with three tabs. Availability and Roster are one-shot per war — once posted the tab locks (turns green, shows "✓ Posted on …"). Reminder is repeatable.

The Reminder tab previews how many players will be pinged and how many are skipped (no reachable Discord). A server-wide Auto-post to Discord toggle beside the button can schedule the availability check + roster for all upcoming wars.

Post-Event: Record Attendance

Once a war has passed the roster becomes read-only, showing "This Shadow War has ended - roster is read-only". You can still record who actually showed up.

1

Enter attendance mode

Click ✓ Attendance (it shows a count if any is already recorded). In-grid checkboxes appear beside every slot.

3

Confirm the changes

Click Done (N) to open the Confirm Attendance modal, which lists newly attended, removed, and kept players. Confirm to save; attendance feeds the attendance % used in future roster decisions. You can also save the finished roster as a template via Templates….

When Another Manager Edits

If someone else saves the same war while you have it open, an amber banner appears: "Roster was updated by another admin." Click Reload to pull their version (discards your unsaved edits) or Dismiss to keep working locally.

Tower War

Tower War (Accursed Towers) is a dynamic roster mode: one attack team plus up to three defense teams of 10 players each, driven by player availability rather than fixed tiers.

For how it compares to the tiered event: → Shadow War Roster

Team Structure

• ⚔️ 1 Attack team — up to 10 players.
• 🛡️ Up to 3 Defense teams — 10 players each.
• That is a maximum of 4 teams / 40 players.
• Teams are added on demand (there are no pre-created games like Shadow War) and each starts empty.
• Every team tracks an optional Tower # and opponent clan name.

How Availability Drives Rostering

Tower War is a sign-up event: only players who have marked themselves positively available can be placed in a team. This is the one real difference from Shadow War's free-for-all pool.

The player pool still shows your whole clan — the sign-up rule only gates who can be dropped into a slot, not who is listed. Non-available players appear greyed out and are skipped by click-to-assign and Quick Add. Availability from Discord RSVPs streams into the roster live (over a websocket).

Quick-Start Tutorial (Desktop)

Build and publish a Tower War roster in a few steps:

1

Open Tower War

Open Events → Tower Wars from the menu. The page opens with the player pool on the left and no teams yet — you add them as needed.

2

Players mark availability

Each player card carries a ✓ (confirmed) and a 🚫 (unavailable) button. Players sign up in-app, or RSVP with a Discord reaction that syncs in automatically. Use the pool's Availability filter to narrow to just the players who are in.

3

Add teams

Officers only Click + Add Attack Team (1 max) or + Add Defense Team (3 max). Each team appears with 10 empty slots under an ATTACK or DEFENSE heading.

4

Set tower number & opponent

In each team header, enter the Tower # (1–9999) and the vs. Opponent clan name. The opponent field auto-saves when you click away. Both appear in the Discord post.

5

Assign players (click-to-assign)

Click an available player in the pool (an amber ring highlights them), then click an empty slot to place them. Click an occupied slot to swap. Unavailable players can't be selected, so the sign-up rule is enforced as you build.

6

Or use Quick Add

Toggle Quick Add in the controls bar. The highlighted team gains an amber ring; each player click drops them into it and auto-advances to the next team with a free slot. Use Next room → to skip ahead manually.

7

Add placeholders for stand-ins

When a slot needs a body but not a specific player, use the Add Placeholder control at the bottom of a team to reserve a count with a label (e.g. "2 awaiting alts"). Placeholders consume slots and can be removed later. The control hides while a player is selected.

8

Post to Discord

Officers only Open Post to Discord and pick a mode: Availability (sign-up check members react to), Roster (the team assignments, tower numbers and opponents as a formatted embed), or Reminder (ping rostered players who haven't responded). Roster and Availability lock once posted.

Team Controls

• Clear — empties one team (players + placeholders) but keeps it.
• Remove — deletes the team; it asks to confirm if players are assigned.
• Clear All — empties every team at once.
• Copy — copies the team's roster (name + Tower #) to your clipboard.

On Mobile

The mobile Tower War view stacks the teams vertically with a player drawer at the bottom. Actions surface through bottom sheets instead of inline controls.

1

Add a team

Tap + Add Team to open the sheet, then choose ⚔️ Add Attack Team or 🛡️ Add Defense Team (each shows its used/max count).

2

Assign from the drawer

Tap a player in the bottom drawer to select them, then tap an empty slot on a team. Tapping an occupied slot opens a replacement confirmation sheet. Long-press or tap a rostered player for View Details / Remove / availability actions.

3

Team settings

Tap a team's ⋮ icon to open the settings sheet, where you set the Tower Number and can Remove Team.

4

Post & save

The floating 📣 Post button opens the full-screen Discord dialog; Save appears whenever you have unsaved changes. Marking availability on mobile auto-saves.

Post-Event: Attendance

Once the event date has passed, the roster becomes read-only. Use the Attendance action to tap each player who actually showed up, then confirm to save the attendee list. This feeds the attendance history used in future roster decisions.

See your own attendance and stats: → My Stats

Shared with Shadow War: click-to-assign, Quick Add, placeholders, Discord availability sync, pool filters, and post-event attendance. → Shadow War

Custom Events

Custom Events are flexible rosters for anything beyond Shadow War and Tower War: raids, farm runs, practice nights. You define a composition (X rooms of Y players), a schedule (one-time or weekly), then fill the slots per occurrence and publish to Discord.

You can browse every event and open its roster to see the lineup. Editing, publishing, and renaming rooms are handled by managers and the assigned event leader.

At a Glance

Compare with → Shadow War (12 games × 8, tiered) and → Tower War (attack + up to 3 defense teams).

• SW / Vigil of Blades — 12 rooms × 8, pre-filled with the 12 Shadow War tier labels (Exalted 1 … Proud 3).
• Tower War · 1–4 teams — that many rooms × 10 players, plain room labels.

4

Wire up leader, channel, and sign-up

Optionally set an Event leader (a clan member who can edit this event’s rosters and publish), a Discord channel for posts, and Require sign-up — when checked, only players who marked themselves available can be rostered. Click Create.

Fill an Occurrence Roster

Click an event name to open its roster editor. The layout, click-to-assign, quick-add, and stand-ins all behave exactly like the Shadow War manager.

1

Navigate to the right occurrence

Weekly events show ← / → arrows to browse past and future dates; one-time events show a single fixed date. A Past · lockedbadge marks read-only occurrences — you can review them but not edit.

2

Assign players

Click a player in the pool (amber ring), then click an empty slot in any room to place them. Click an occupied slot to swap. A player can only occupy one slot. Rooms render 3 per row.

3

Set availability signals

Toggle ✓ / ? / ✕ on a player in the pool, or ✓ / 🚫 right on a rostered slot, to mark them available, maybe, or unavailable, exactly as on Shadow War. Marking a rostered player unavailable frees their slot. Rostered players show their attendance %, with the orange border when it is below your threshold. If the event requires sign-up, only ✓ players can be assigned. If a rostered player clicks Can't make it on Discord, their slot is freed, anyone with the roster open sees Roster updated by someone else (Reload / Dismiss), and officers get a post in the admin channel with a link to the roster.

4

Quick-add, stand-ins, and auto-fill

Quick add highlights the next open room (amber border) so each pool click drops a player straight in, auto-advancing as rooms fill. + Stand-in adds a placeholder for a seat you’ll fill later. Auto-fill round-robins all available players into empty slots — it only appears when the event does not require sign-up.

DI Power Score Calculator

A free Diablo Immortal build comparison tool. Configure gems, sets, essences and stats, pick a target, and see your build's power scored by a tick-based combat engine — then compare two builds side by side.

Open to everyone — no clan or sign-in required. Everything you configure is saved in your browser and shareable by URL. → Game Mechanics · → Player Score

What it does

• Two view modes — Single (one build, centered) or Side by Side (Baseline vs Experiment).
• Three perspectives — every build reports a Floor, Effective and Ceiling multiplier.
• DPS or Survivability — toggle to score offense or defense (vs Hits / vs DoTs / vs CC).
• PvE / PvP — bookmarks on the score panel switch the simulation and apply the PvP strife nerf.
• Find Possible Upgrades — the engine brute-forces gem/set swaps and ranks them by percent gain.
• Auto-save + share — builds persist to your browser; the ?build= URL updates live so you can copy and share it.

Reading the score

Scores are shown as a multiplier (e.g. 4.20x) over base damage — not a raw DPS number. The big number is Effective Power; two smaller numbers sit beneath it.

In Side-by-Side mode the Experiment panel also shows a coloured delta (e.g. +3.4%) versus Baseline.

The scoring formula

Damage is a product of independent multiplicative buckets, plus a separate additive proc layer:

Score = baseHPS × GEN × LEG × EFF × CRIT × ATK_SPD + PROC_DPS

Final = Score × COM   (Combat Rating bonus, capped at 11.3%)

Stat caps

The Stats section enforces these caps on input. Values are entered as percentages.

Base CHC and Attack Speed both cap at 100%.

Stacking rules

Effects stack differently by delivery type:

Buff A: +30% value, 40% uptime  → 0.40 × 30% = 12.0%
Buff B: +20% value, 50% uptime  → 0.50 × 20% = 10.0%

Effective = 12.0% + 10.0% = 22.0%
Ceiling   = 30% + 20% = 50%  (all active at once)

Armor Break group:            +30%
Increased Damage Taken group: +25%

Total = (1 + 0.30) × (1 + 0.25) − 1 = 62.5%

CHC = 1 − (1 − (base + Σ gem_i)) × Π(1 − set_j)

Uptime & duration

Effective Duration = base × (1 + BED)
Effective Cooldown = base × (1 − CDR)
Uptime = min(1, effective duration / effective cooldown)

Secondary stats & the target

Four secondary stats derive combat bonuses from the difference between your stats and the target's, via the logarithmic curves from → Game Mechanics:

bonus = maxBonus × (1 − e^(−7.748 × clamp(|diff|, 3000) / 3000))

The Target section shows a live readout of these four derived bonuses (CHD bonus, Block val, HED, HER) as you edit your stats or the target.

Target presets

Survivability

Switch the score toggle to Survivability to score defense across three columns — vs Hits, vs DoTs, and vs CC — each reporting Full Sync (ceiling) / Sustained / Floor. Expand Bucket Detail for the per-bucket breakdown.

PvE / PvP mode

The PvE / PvP bookmarks sit on the left edge of the score panel:

• PvE — the target respawns; score reflects sustained farming.
• PvP — non-permanent, non-damage effect values are reduced to 30% (strife), and the HED/HER curves widen to ±50% (vs ±30% in PvE).

Gems, sets & essences

• Up to 8 gems — each rank R1–R10, classified with a bucket, delivery type and conditions.
• Sets — mix 2pc / 4pc / 6pc bonuses across your 8 gear slots; some sets add a stack slider (0–15). Standard 6pc buffs use a 40s cooldown / 12s duration.
• Essences — one per gear slot (8 slots), auto-classified from the game skillbook. Each carries a status badge:
