something very simple:
whenever a corpse is exploited while you are targeting it, the target goes away. Sometimes I will try to res somebody, and before i click the res key, someone expliots the corpse and i get "invalid spell target", so I have to spend another second or 2 retargeting the corpse. one second makes a big difference in pvp.

what's wrong with just clicking the players name in the party menu?

I've actually run into the same problem, albeit very rarely. It's not something solved by using the party window for Ressing. I've had "Invalid Spell Target" pop up before when I was trying to Res Sig a dead ally. Not sure what the cause is, but something's screwy.

I do. Then if someone exploits the corpse before i use a skill on it, it fails and i have to target it again, which makes no sense.

I've never had that problem with rez. Corpse exploitation shouldn't have any effect, and never has for me in game...

have you submitted a bug report?

/signed. Fix this one Anet. Fix it now please!

Same thing happens to me. Once or twice I was in the middle of using rez sig, someone exploited the corpse and it says invalid spell target

It should be noted that it's probably not an "exploit," though. It sounds like more of a bug than anything else. Unless "exploit" actually referred to the corpse exploitation skills themselves?

Yes, Siren, they are talking about "corpse exploitation" which appears in skill descriptions too. Not the exploit in the "omg l33t haxx" sense.
