I need deflector. So then I run again and again KASE.
I noticed Donatra is cheating us a lot.
I would like to know what are her skills? How many skills has Donatra?

Torpedo spread (photons and I think plasma if I recall right) are a big killer. Don't get in front of or behind her if escort tanking unless you're a tanky engineer escort build.
And yea, avoid the thalaron beam (and hope that she doesn't cheat and fire it as she decloaks).
You can also stop her from cloaking if the person with aggro stays 8-10 (maybe 6-10) kilometres out (easiest for a cruiser with threat control, or an all turret escort with threat control, but the latter is only recommended for engineers due to the torpedo spreads).
What I do not find out. It's the range of this thalaron beam. She hit me even though I'm out of her thalaron beam. It seems if you're her target. No matter where you are. She will hit you. Many times I went out of thalaron beam and when she shoot she hit me (one shot). Does this mean when you are her target. Just stay at 14 km while teammates fight with donatra? I think it's bad solution.

I manage to escape her usually, but I suspect that animation and actual firing arc mght not line up perfectly. Best guess is to hold your Evasive Maneuvers for the moment she starts to decloak and run out of the arc and out of range.

It happens to me one time. One team member left and we were 4 in team. Donatra was in love in my Dreadnought. I hate being down all the time because that rising respawn timer. So I was outside 10km, until she decided to target someone else (which lasts for maybe 2 min). During these 2 min, other 3 team members manage to almost kill her, because she doesn't cloak.
Her Thaloron is bugged so that she insta-fires when decloaking (and then proceeds to charge it up and fire it again, for extra insult) every now and then, but when it works as intended it's easy enough to avoid.
Her Torp Spread is actually more dangerous. Best thing you can do is try to attack her from the side, imo.
What has been said has pretty much covered my strategies, depending on which of my characters I'm playing as.
As a Tac Escort/BoP I almost always get the aggro and simply make a point to stay attached at close range to the rear of her ship.
As my Engineer/Tank I have the aggro without fail and generally just circle at 6-8km keeping her attention on me, shrugging off her attacks and using evasive maneuvers when she decloaks.
Science officer rarely gets the aggro, I simply drain her shields and she'll usually die before she even gets a chance to cloak; but if she does cloak I'll activate the ablative armour and sit in the middle of her cone-o-death laughing just to spite her.

Weapons of note are: Tractor Beam Mines, Borg Probes, and the Big Green Cone of Death (Thalaron).
Either polarize hull or repulse tractors for the mines. "Don't get in the way" is the best tactic for dealing with the cone of death.
