Well i just answered about the urb above ... as for the plate armor
SpoilerShow
You dont go DOWN to get it ... you come UP
BIG
SpoilerShow
On level entitled "Trapped" in the halls of fire there is a long passage with a face that spits fireballs at you [not just a fire cloud, actual projectiles] in this hall there are many hidden switches, and switches WITHIN the hidden rooms, get them all and a room with a staircase up will appear, its difficult to describe in just words, but run around that passage searching for as many buttons as possible, bring some fire protection ;)
Lots more detail here from another topic
REALLY BIG
SpoilerShow
The entrance from Level 6 is down the long hallway with a plate that starts a demon face firing at you. Down this hallway there are a total of THREE hidden buttons. When you first enter the hall, the first button you see (I think it will be on the right, not sure) will open a small gap on the right. This is where the stairs up will appear (but they are not visible yet!)

Keep going down the hall, past the pressure plate - unfortunately the demon head will now be spitting at you. Quickly check the walls and I think on your left will be another secret button. Push that, and directly across the hall another gap will open. Enter this new gap, and you will see a third hidden button. Upon hitting this third button, the stairwell in the earlier gap will appear. Run back to that gap and go up the stairs. Do prepare though, as there were two fireball-chucking monsters up there, quite difficult to fight in close quarters (I fortunately had some frost bombs which work wonders on these)

Still can't find the:
SpoilerShow
orb of radiance (on 6), I've looked just to the south of the entrance on the east wall just like sevtai says and I can't find it, I think I already freed the skeleton by removing a torch, rather than pressing a button maybe? Anyway, could someone be more specific, I'd appreciate it after spending hours looking for it to no avail, Thanks,
Also, more generally:
SpoilerShow
What is a 'runic button' can someone point me to a picture? I have no idea what people are talking about, I know the 'loose stone' buttons, and the more buttons highlighted by stonework, but not the 'runic', if anyone could at least describe them I'd appreciate it, Thanks,

As for runic buttons, its actually the bottom stone with a rune sign on it as compared to the normal loose small square stone on the top of the wall. Its at the corridoor where u freed the skelly

The last treasure inside the Tomb of the Designers, AFTER your fix up the death cube, after you use the teleport that opens after it starts trying to eat you, in the right tunnel, there is a runic button which opens up the room.

I noticed that the list doesn't have an entry for the Golden Chalice I found. Sadly I don't remember what lvl I found it on, I think it was lvl 3 but it could have been lvl 2. I've had it sitting in my inventory for quite a long time now, but I just got to lvl6 last night and I know it couldn't have come from lvl5.

I saw there is a treasure entry for a golden deity on lvl 3 already, is it possible the treasure loot is random?

Treasure isn't random, chalice is from level 2

The diety is found on level 4, in the slime dungeon, which is only accessed from level 3, hence its placement in level 3.

Anyone got any hints for the location of the Flarefeather Cap on lvl4? I've been over that level 100 times still missing that...

EDIT: Fount it thanks to Nianu's map!
SpoilerShow
It's in the catacombs at the end of a long hall on the north side. The button for the door is hidden in another hallway near a sconce and a switch. Careful, there's a troop of legionairs inside :)

And it seems like i'm on an extended item hunt today...

Anyone got any hints on the Bracer of Fortitude on lvl5?
I was over this level pretty thoroughly on my own, found a couple things I missed using Nianu's maps. Still no bracer :(
My guys are running out of food from all this searching for items i've missed XD

EDIT: Also, I know I found 2 of Toorum's notes on lvl3. I've found 5 of them so far and I haven't gone down to lvl6 yet. I'm pretty sure there's 1 on lvl4, with the 2 you have listed for lvl5 that would account for all the ones i've found so far. Not sure if you want to add them to your notes or not.
