Ok i Started with them now , I chose a night elf Priest and a night elf hunter. Im Mainly focussing on PVE but i might try some arenas, where shadowmeld ofcourse wil get very handy.
As for specs i wil be BM/MM 41/20 specc and Disc/Holy with the priest.
Any tips for leveling them up such as handy macros? I already read some of the stickys where i found one to make them accept quests and such. However its terrible when it comes to item drop/collection quests wich are most of them. Without quests it wil take ages to level up especially when starting from 1 like me. Any advice?

First of all Hi Nedrip and welcome to the forums.
I have a 70 hunter and 70 priest, on different accounts, but I didn't try multiboxing them yet, so can't help much with that.
In terms of automating things a bit, quest acceptance, res acceptance etc, try automaton, mod available on curse gaming which is very customisable. Smart buff will probably also help.
In terms of levelling, things should get easier after 20. With only 2 chars, its still worth doing most collection quests, not as bad as 5 chars /gasp. Just follow one of the online guides like that at wowpro.com. Since the changes of 2.3 it should be easy enough, given the extra xp boosts. Just alternate collection quests between the chars and you should easily keep up with the guide.
For macros's I'm no expert, but:

are a handy start,
Good luck

My bottom left action bars on the hunter side have blank macros, with the picture of the spell that the priest is to cast. When I middle click that, the priest does her thing.
The first hot button is 'Target pet', the second is 'Target hunter' and the third is 'Target priest and throw up a shield'... these are all commands that go directly to the priest. The only reason she would be targeted if is she were under attack, so of course the shield would go up automatically.
The next few buttons are various heal spells, and then I have the hunter's own melee attacks. On the right are the damaging spells that the priest can cast. Basically all these are blank and are just placeholders on the hunter side, on the priest side they are the actual spells and macros like '/target Arbez'.
Other than that I don't use any macros, I feel it takes away from the skill value of the game and I've never found anything too useful. For basic running around, grinding/farming, etc, the only macro I have a real need for is a pet attack and a pet follow button, because sometimes the pet bar disappears and you lose control of your pet. These are simply /petattack /petfollow buttons you can make. You can also make a basic feed bet button but that's not too hard to click two buttons instead of just one.
For addons, Smart Buff is one that is helpful for the priest, like Kyudo suggested. Decursive is nice to have as well, but it will have to be used from the priest's side.
Kyudo, if your priest and hunter are on different accounts you should throw em together and have a little fun =^)

Thanks for the replies 8)
They are both lv 10 now and ive been experimenting dual-boxing them.
Since my priest istnt there for DPS purposes i just created i castsequance with cast SW:P and Starshards and 1x mindblast and put that under arcane shot. For buffing.. I unbinded F1 and F2 key on my hunter so now i can quickly Press F1 and cast something on my priest or press F2 and cast on my hunter. Double F2 to cast on my pet. All healing spells are binded to easy to reach keys.
I basicly quest like other hunters except i can pull much larger groups and even elites because of the easy healing support. I like it so far. To be updated...
p.s. If you got any constructive comments feel free to post :D
