Back in action, but what to do?

Thanks for the input guys. I was mainly looking at the boomx2 or hunterx2 because on my lead account I have all my single box characters. I would rather box the same class
and spec because I am not sure if I can multi task that well, focus on healing while tanking, etc. But thanks for the input, I guess I will roll with whatever is more fun, we will
see Boomkins got level 60 last night so its time to pick! Its nice to hear from you all again!

As someone with a survival hunter who is raiding weekly, I can give this input about explosive shot. Explosive shot procs a max of once per 30 seconds. If you are dual-boxing and have a mod like Tell Me When to notify you visually that you have a proc on either screen you can easily just punch the key with your explosive shot spell. If it's not off CD for your alt, your alt won't fire the explosive shot. Since it's insta-cast (only limited by GCD) you won't lose a ton of dps on the alt while you briefly Explosive, pause a half second, Re-Exposive once the dot wears off.

The general rotation is very simple and should work well for a dual-boxer:
Begin fight with Hunter's Mark
Send pets in
Serpent Stings
Explosive Shots
Steady Shots
Steady Shots
Explosive Shots
Steady Shots
Steady Shots

-Reapply Mark when it wears off
-Reapply serpents when they wears off
-Shoot free procs (about once every 30 seconds per toon)

There are two camps of Survival Hunters right now. Trap Dancers and Distance Shooters. If you're dual-boxing I'd recommend the Distance Shooting. If you are going for trap dancing, you'll have a little more trouble. Disengage is buggy and you may find that sometimes you jump back very far and other times you hardly move at all. This could separate your toons a bit and cause a need to manually move an alt - not good.

Thanks a ton for the input! I was aming for distance. I will give the hunters a go and see if I keep enjoying leveling them!

Nice to see everyone again!
