Your description of the situation is quite sketchy. What pets? Who has aggro? It would probably be best to mez first it to get the pets off, then memblur to wipe the PCs off its aggro list. I assume you mean uncontrollable pets, which would still aggro your mob even if only memblurred. If controlled pets were pounding on your mob well thats the owner's fault. To lose mob aggro sure memblur is all you need, but it is unclear from your statement what is the case.
Stop telling others how to play their class is good advice, especially if you think you know how to do it better.
Mob was unmezzable otherwise it would have been a nonissue. Mez it, I do turn in, good to go. It was the chanter's uncontrollable pet (didn't have the AAs I assume) that kept attacking. If everyone backed away and a mem blur was done til it stuck, the mob would have walked back to spawn pt. A bunch of other people in the raid also had aggro because they had hit it, so a mem blur was needed either way. We ended up just zoning the whole raid instead and coming back.
I'm not sure what to make of your last statement. Are you saying that you should never offer people advice if you think you know a better way?
In this particular case, I did know how to do it better. I sent the advice in a tell to the chanter bascially asking her to mem blur it. She replied with 'Mem blur does not work unless the mob is mezzed and this is unmezzable' and I told her that mem blur works whether it's mezzed or not, she said no it doesn't and I let it drop at that. She was obviously wrong, I gave my input on the situation, giving her the opportunity to possibly learn something new and didn't press it further.
It wasn't that she didn't know that you could mem blur without mezzing first that bugged me so much, it was the flat out denial of the possiblity when I told her it would. Again, though, I didn't force what I knew to be true on her.
