How can I root LG G3 running android marshmallow 6.0?

Hello everyone!
This is my first time on any forum . Now back to the issue. I am using LG G3 (f400l30c) Marshmallow 6.0 (official LG update). I want to safely root my lg now but i can find root only of lollipop or kitkat. I don't know if those same root designed for Android lollipop will work on marshmallow as well? Any help is appreciated!
P.S. I have never rooted by G3 before.

LG G4 VS98611A Marshmallow Root Update

So I currently am running Android 5.1 with Root. What do I need to do to upgrade to 6.0? Is there any special step? Do I have to unroot and re-root? Let me know.
First, Marshmallow has not yet been released for the Verizon G4 (VS986). So you cannot upgrade to MM at this time and will have to wait for Verizon to release the update. Nobody knows when that will be, but as of yesterday, all 3 other major carriers have released MM for their G4s.
Second, you will not be able to root Marshmallow on the VS986 since that particular model has a locked bootloader. With Marshmallow, Google added some new flags to the boot.img (kernel and ramdisk) to prevent root that have to be flipped in order to allow root, otherwise you just bootloop. But without an unlocked bootloader, you will not be able to flash a custom boot.img. Without an unlocked bootloader, there is little hope at this time for root on the stock LG Marshmallow ROM. If you want to keep root, you need to stay on 5.1.
Still not getting update

If you have KDZ file, You don't have to upgrade lollipop. Flash MM KDZ file with wipes!

Man there are so many variants of G4! I did read guides but most of them just cover international models.. Its more confusing. I wont wanna brick my phone.
You cannot root F500K MM. The only way to get root is by flashing 5.1.1 LP.

ROOT for F400K 6.0 MARSHMALLOW

Is there any known good method for rooting an LG G3 F400K running 6.0 ?
Reason I ask is that I have tried a few, none seem to work? Updates to most of them were around 2 years ago?
If you are on v30n firmware is impossible to root, for moment, and you need to revert to an older version on firmware , if lg flash tool don't work, give a try to lg up
F400K30i
Thanks for the reply. I'm on F400K30i.
