Any NPC's with ewar, especially the hacs that take as long to kill as BS's. The blood raider hacs that nos like 30 cap a second from 40 km out may be the worst of 'em. I take it these are supposed to be Curses? Hey, maybe we'll get lucky and the nos nerf will affect NPC's too!

Worlds Collide NPCs. I enter the second room, kill 2 NPCs. Suddenly I'm surrounded by 10 NPCs missle spamming the crap out of me. Vaporising my shields and armour.
Shooting the spies brings full stage aggro. Don't shoot the spies and you can aggro individual spawns within the pocket. If you're using drones, have them engage a target the moment you release them, right-click on drones in local space as they're attacking a ship, hover your mouse over engage target, and click it the moment they blow up the ship so, in the absence of lag, they move onto the next ship without shooting one of the spies.
If you can't tank the full stage aggro, don't run WC in a laggy system with drones, because chances are your drones will aggro the spies and bring hell down upon you.

My bane is the sensor dampening ones , not a major issue but damn frustrating,
also dont increase the Ai of the rats , next thing you know they will be logging off in combat,petitioning GM's and creating crap threads on CAOD,
not to mention the possible scams you will get

Similar to the Spies in World's Collide, I was doing a storyline mission against the Gallente Navy. Naturally, I was taking it slow, gathering knowledge from various website, maximizing my tank. So I warp in, kill two battleships and a few cruisers, cringe at the incredible mass of 30+ battleships hovering less than 50km away, and decide to move downwards to give me a chance to run if I accidently aggro them somehow.
I notice two frigates (I wasn't going to risk launching my drones to deal with them; full stage aggro is nasty) were scrambling me. Odd, since the online tips didn't mention them. My tracking was horrible, so I decided to take some random shots at them while moving away from the large cluster of enemies. No harm, right?
My already choppy FPS due to a ridiculous amount of shiny clouds slowly got worse and worse. By chance, one shot hit a frigate that had slightly less transversal than it's usual orbitting. The lag struck, a frozen screen staring back at my eyes that were encrusted in grime from lack of sleep.
When the spike ended, I was at my last hair of structure, with every single enemy targetting me, and nothing to do but weep and be glad my deathmail didn't include too much faction gear.
It's funny how I lag whenever multiple enemies target me. I mean, are there any worse times?

Don't put all your faith in those. Missions change.

NPCs targetting you en masse causes lag, probably one of the main reasons they switched to wave spawns now.

Definately NPC HACs for me.
Webbers, jammers, I can deal with them. A CRUISER WHICH TAKES ZOMFG FULL RACK OF TORPS/CRUISE MISSILES TO DESTROY COZ BETWEEN EACH VOLLEY IT JAMS AND SHIELDREPS???
Uh, heh, yeah. :/

well was just doing some missioning and i though that i would bring this up.
the most annoying NPC in the entire game:
without DOUBT:
Dire pithi saboteur.
it's a frigate with around 27k bounty that can jam as well as the scorpion npc's and they come in packs of 3-8 if there is 8 of them well.. you might as well just wait untill your drones have killed them... which can take its time when your perma jamemd...
that is why it is annoying.
the reason i am bringing it up is:
"have you ever tryid to make a ecm frigate?. i have, and it is almost impossible to do with any effect."
so what npc do you find the most annoying and stupidly made?
Moved from GD -Sahwoolo
ever heard of eccm?
the spider drone 2 is easily the most annoying enemy unit ive encountered. anything i shoot at which has eleventy bazillion structure points after i just spent a rack and a half bringing it into structure... almost as annoying as a spider drone 2.

The ones with the drone complex. You know the ones I mean, they sit at 120km from you, keeping an eye on you while they drink their tea and you kill their buddies, but the moment you release your drones they all spring into action, *all* of them targeting the same drone, only to go back to their tea and cupcakes once the drones have been recalled or went boom(usually the latter).

Those NPC's that fly ravens in 0.0 and kill all the other NPC's, whose AI can't even speak english properly.
oh wait, those are farmers 
I wish I could put bounties on anyone so I can truly rat farmers.
I was about to give you a QFT mate, but then I saw your alliance name. . . you do know IAC are well known for accepting farmer corps right?

The most annoying NPCs are DRONES specially Ogre II.
When you send them on a target they do it .. or not ... . When they do it .. maybe they stay there ... maybe not. When they do not stay there maybe they attack unaggroed stuff, structures ... ..
And when they do the worst ... theyre faster then ever .
Btw. the drone wich is under fire is alltime the slowest returner.
