Well here are my options for 5 boxing PvE stuff:

Account 1: 80 DK / 80 Druid (Feral/Resto Dual Spec) / 80 Shaman (Ele/Resto Dual Spec) / 58 DK (yes, my 80 DK is a transfer)

Account 2: 80 Hunter (BM/SV Dual Spec) / 60 Paladin (Prot) / 60 Druid / 60 Rogue / 60 Mage / 23 Warlock

Account 3/4/5: 60 Shaman (Elemental) / 60 Druid / 23 Warlock (on 3&4) / 23 Priest (on 5)

Any way I look at it I'm boned for XP as at least one group will have an 80 in it...

Group Option 1 (Most appealing): 1 Paladin Tank with 4 x Shaman (one Resto as required)

Group Option 2 (Second group to 80 probably): 80 Feral Tank, 3 x Boomkin, 1 x Tree

Group Option 3 (If I have time or bored with Outlands/NR): 58 DK Tank, 3 x Warlock, 1 x Holy Priest

I am planning on running my paladin/shaman group first, as I think they will be the easiest to level up through instances, as long as I keep the 80 shaman's FS/LvB out of the group rotation until the entire group gets to 75 and has LvB. The 80 is also the resto shaman if needed and should have no problems healing the paladin. I also think this group would be the most forgiving out of all, with Earth Elementals providing a nice "oh shit" button if needed. All the groups were leveled to 60 via RAF so I haven't really been multiboxing proper at all.

I have done some searching on the forums for the 96969 rotation for my paladin, and I have my shaman DPS macro set up as per some macros here on the forums.

I guess this post is more of a "does this grouping look OK" more than anything. My 80 shaman leveled up from 78 to 80 strictly through BGs over the weekend, and still has half of Zul Drak, and all of Sholozar Basin, Storm Peaks and Icecrown to finish up. My only issue is phasing in Dragonblight (pre Wrathgate) for the other 4, but that isn't too annoying of an initial questline and I think my group of 4 can get to the same phase point as the 80 relatively quickly.

Thanks for reading the ramblings. Mondays at work really suck.
