Stolen from the Eve forums because I wanted to articulate it well:

In the drone window, expand so you can see your drones in space. (it's usually best if you have them all in a drone group, but not essential). Select the drone, drones or drone group you want and then right click. Select 'Assist' from the menu and choose your fleet mate.

and skilled drones in a domi are MEAN ( i know, my main guy has gallente bs 5 and maxed drone skills ). 2 domis like that would tear stuff up. Couple that with the CNR which is a beast on its own... thats a good setup.

My problem with the drones is I dont like to have to deal wtih them getting blown up, and i dont like dealing with disconnects and having to reclaim the drones, too big of a PITA.

Regarding the orca... i know it has all kinds of tractor bonuses and a big cargo hold so that makes sense. Did you salvage from it? I need to go look and see how many highs it has.
No salvaging from the Orca, the Domis each have several salvagers. It basically works like this:

The CNR and drones kill stuff before it reaches the fleet. The Orca and its 2-3 salvagers drag all the wrecks in close. You loot to the Orca's cargo hold and the Domis, positioned close to the Orca, can salvage the wrecks.
