Trying to attack a DD is a waste of time and resources. You only have so many torpedoes in your loadout... use them for tonnage and get more renown.

One well-placed torpedo on a T3 pays almost twice the renown than one torpedo sinking a lowly V&W Destroyer, not to mention the tonnage difference.

The only time I attack a DD is when I'm in shallow waters, the DD has detected me and I have no more depth below me to aid my escape. Even those situations are rare for me.
