Generally, right on-top of whatever asteroid you wish to mine, in order to minimize drone travel time. Other than that, I would suggest Amarr space, as it is the largest of the four factions, and it is easier to find CODE. free systems. ---

You don’t mine with an Orca. You use your Orca mostly to boost your 3-5 Hulk alts in nullsec anoms. Sounds like you saw a shiny ship you like in the ship tree and skill injected straight away into it and no idea how to use it ---

honestly this isnt true. many people afk mine with orcas in hs. However its certainly not engaging play and not something that you would expect a new player to do. ---
