Corpses are required by a number of skills and [[:Category:Modifiers|modifiers]]:

However, none of these can be used on the following, since no corpse can be selected:

Additionally, [[Fetish Shaman]] does not leave a corpse (although supporting [[Fetish]] does), and [[Frozen Horror]]s shatter upon death without leaving corpses (as can any other monster that is chilled or frozen at time of death). However, the death explosions of [[Bone Fetish]]es, [[Suicide Minion]]s and [[Fire Enchanted]] [[Unique (monster)|Unique]] monsters do not prevent a corpse from being generated and used.

Some more specific restrictions apply:
* Find Potion and Grim Ward cannot be used on the following due to lack of flesh, or bones (they aren't flagged as soft in MonStats2.txt):

{|cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 width=100%
|- valign=top
|width=33%|
* [[Abyss Knight]]
* [[Blood Hawk Nest]]
* Bone Fetish
* [[Doom Knight]]
* [[Finger Mage]]
|width=34%|
* [[Gargoyle Trap]]
* [[Oblivion Knight]]
* [[Skeleton]]
* [[Skeleton Archer]]
* [[Skeleton Mage]]
|width=33%|
* [[Swarm]]
* [[Tentacle Beast]] tentacles
* [[Thorned Hulk]]
* [[Willowisp]]
* [[Wraith]] [https://www.theamazonbasin.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/101657-diablo-ii-basin-wiki/&do=findComment&comment=1523557]
|}
* Summoned Dire Wolf cannot eat the following:
** Blood Hawk Nest
** Gargoyle Trap
** Tentacle Beast
* Carrion Vine and Solar Creeper cannot consume Gargoyle Trap.
* Static units (all of which are listed among the above) cannot be used to summon Necroskeletons, Necromages or Revived, or reanimate as Returned.
* Monsters to which effects [[altering AI]] do not apply cannot be revived (although they can be reanimated as Returned):
** [[Minion of Destruction]]
** Oblivion Knight
** Putrid Defiler
** Suicide Minion
* [[Leaper]] also cannot be revived (although again, they can be reanimated as Returned).

Otherwise, the only restrictions on corpse selection are other players and monsters that try to use them first:
* [[Fallen Shaman]] resurrects [[Fallen]]
* Flayer Shaman resurrects Fetishes and [[Blow Pipe Fetish]]es
* [[Greater Mummy]] resurrects low [[undead]]
* [[Nihlathak (boss)|{{Ub|=Nihlathak}}]] casts his own corpse explosion
* [[Reanimated Horde]] can resurrect itself
* [[Regurgitator]] eats and spits out corpses
Consequently, even if corpses aren't used for their own sake, they can be used to prevent them being used against players and their allies: once a corpse has been used, it cannot be used again.
