Those special rats that are in the asteroid belts of systems where there is an Incursion going on.... Is there any profit at all to killing them? IIRC they had no bounty and dropped nothing.

There is no profit.

Always willing to help all you have to do is ask, though if you're in the other fleet I may not help the way you want. Just a heads up. Pub Channel: Lost Souls Trading Post

Although they are much harder...they dont provide any income.

Incursion income comes from running the Incursion sites with fleets.

They drop next to nothing either. Waste of time (although good for a laugh).

They are there to warn you to GTFO their system.

I´d be more inclined to assume they are there to stop miners from doing their AFK-business as usual in an Incursion constellation. And they are quite efficient at that.

Or pick a stealth bomber and watch AFK miners pop in seconds.

remind me I did once Recon 1 of 3 at incursion system with max effects active and wondered why the hell this is so hard?

I wish normal belt rats were just as effective.
