The main thing is once you lose contact with a DD, don't do something stupid until you've got some range on them. Very important with cams off.
You may finally escape the circle, but they could still be hunting where they last had contact with you, if you increase speed, come up above the thermal, cut off silent running, one could hear and the whole herd could come back. It's also common for them to leave a sleeper behind stopped, so you get no sonar contact. Make sure you clear the baffles several times.
I've set most of mine to elite status and they hunt you like dogs, sometimes the only thing I can do is wait for them to run out of charges.
