Root Root -> softbrick after VZW OTA, question re: reroot

Hi,

I have a c811 with M070 running on Verizon.

Kernel 3.4.0
Baseband M8960A-1.5.38_c811M070

I successfully rooted with Kinguser before finding this forum and all was good...that is until an OTA was rammed down my throat courtesy of Big Red. Then I was bootlooped.

So, now that I'm out of the forest with that (thank you very much), I'd like to reroot, but am wondering:

1. best method for root on Verizon builds

2. if any mods will circumvent OTA inherently (other than freeze)

3) can I take radio update?

4) anything else I should consider?

Thanks in advance.

Jon
