Root Rooting Samsung Galaxy s5 SM-G900V

[HappyDucky]

I have been searching the internet for methods of rooting the s5 that I have. I have come across multiple answers that each have their own problems if they fail. So I would like to ask, apologizing for any redundancy for previous threads asking this same question, how in the world DO I root this phone?

device information:

Android Version: 5.0
Kernel Version: 3.4.0 March 18, 2015
Build Number: LRX21T.G900VVRU1BOC4

Please make note if I need to give more information in order to get an answer, I'm new to the phone modification business!

Thank you.

"V" meaning it's the Verizon version S5?

G900V Do I have to downgrade from BOC4 to KK in order to root?
