So every 5 mins you can kill about 10 mobs and then reset. You can get upwards to 200 mobs per hour if you are good, and since many BOES have an upwards to 5% chance to drop you can assume you will get one or two... some times more. My best set was 3x wodins, 2x harbringer's band, 1x ring of rotting sinew in a single hour (at 5k, 6k and 3k worth per that netted me 30k total).

I HIGHLY suggest running as a paladin + 4 shaman for this, or bring a healer friend and you can clear a bit more of the trash if you really wanna try (i run with a healer shaman + 4 ret paladins and a dk and can do like 12-13 mobs before resetting in about 5 mins)
Not too sure how you make your pulls, how you are geared or what kind of dps you do. But here is what I just tried.

As you can see from this screenshot I'm sitting at 40k+ raid dps. My 3 shammies pull between 10-14k single target in icc, and with multiple mobs my tank does 6-7k as well. Riptide is enough to keep me up with an occasional healing wave. Now a damned mob has 1.6m hp, with 40k raid dps (which is pretty decent i'd say as a 5boxer) that takes me 40 seconds to kill 1 mob, obviously AOE lowers that, as does bloodlust. That is with using chain lighting whenever available.

So i pulled the first 2 guards and the 3 patrolling at once. Ran back down the stairs to avoid some of the non rep mobs would spawn. When i was done my dps where at 35% mana, so need to drink. Then pulled the left caster + 4 damned mobs with lso (to avoid traps). Same story.

So with running in, running out, killing 10 mobs, the risk that you have to kill a mob that spawns, ... i really don't see how you can kill 9 mobs within 5 minutes with the shammies. Even adding a 4th dps shammy and running with another healer won't change the numbers such.

Maybe i'm missing something though.
