Just get to the nearest (full speed, you can cheat using the freecam to see the DD coming, and evade in time), deepest spot in the sea. And go as deepest, and silent as possible. Over 150m spot would be preferred.

Works everytime

Well if that works every time, I'm definitely doing something wrong :hmm:

I meant to say mostly, don't know how that slipped there.

Anyway, if that fails. Go pop a cap in its ass and call it a day

I've already been at 140m depth with engines OFF
for almost an hour I would say. But the escort still came back to ping me.
I'm afraid I just have to sit it out until the escort will regroup with it's convoy - whenever this will be...

Manually (from the speed guage and whilst in silent running mode) set your speed to 1 knot....that is as quiet as you can be whilst moving.

The other plus is that your battery lasts longer (longer than your oxygen level anyway)

Yup, speed one knot. rudder 5-10 degrees. You may change depth.
