I mean, it depends a little bit on what difficulty you're playing but:

Overkill:
Low blow basic, suit, perk deck anarchist, that +armor on headshot skill aced. Iron man basic.
Most of the shotgun tree.
Inspire Aced.
2 Medkits.

Grimm Akimbo isn't "bad" it just needs low blow. I rarely if ever go down on Overkill. I usually take a Loco with slugs for shields.

this build has a ♥♥♥♥ ton of damage (use with lightweight balistic vest), i use this with anarchist, although its not a perfect build, just change some stuff around depending on the dlc's you have to mod out the izhma for crit damage, its not the best build, but its pretty fun

you can use stoic if you want a competitive-ly better build, but stoic requires you to constantly keep an eye on your healthbar, so for fun i say anarchist or a dodge build

Or use armour stoic.

Also, OP, don't just copy-paste builds. Set them around your play style.

@mrgunshot hey, what's your secondary? i need to get my detection risk down.

The Grimms can get a lot of DPS if the build is built correct and is modded right. With that being said: https://pd2builder.netlify.app/?s=003c103I49100010-5705U000158&p=e&a=0&t=6

Bring with the Akimbo Grimms (of course), and the MA-17 Flamethrower modded for concealment. At the end you should have 22 Concealment.

By the way, tweak this build to what suits you, don't take this as gospel.

Aced quick fix, combat doctor, pain killers, combat medic and aced inspire. Aced underdog, aced shotgun cqb, aced shotgun impact, close by either aced or just upgraded once, up to you. Overkill just upgraded. Duck and cover aced, inner pockets aced, parkour aced and ace sneaky bastard. upgrade second wind. Ace nine lives, mesiah, swag song and feign death and berserker. Upgrade bloodthirsty, martial arts and up you go. The build absolutely great. Feel free to use left over points on something else.

Since u need low conceal u gotta use weapons like akimbo judge and normal judge. Normal judge for regular enemies. The akimbo for special enemies such as dozers with AP slugs. Works more than well on OD+DS
