Use the Easier 1-2-3 Root stickied here in Droid 2 Development, and then let me know where you need help.
I have a at&t i337 s4 with android 4.3 mk2 & I need to root it so I can get my safestrap going for my custom rom of choice..I lost root & last time I was running 4.2.2 & used kingo root..I tried that today but it was only good up to 4.2.2 not 4.3 from what I gathered..so whats the quickest easiest way for me to root now? I've done some research but found alot of confusing & conflicting results so thought I'd just ask here on xda where I've never been done wrong..thanks

Certainly seems that way.
XDA is here to help right ?

Kingo, don't have switch to supersu afterward.vroot works but have to switch to supersu for english
As the title says.. I tried towelroot.com but the download never actually starts. It says it's starting, but never does anything.. Any tips, please?

You can't get cm on the i337 unless you're on mdl firmware. And you can't downgrade to it. Thank at&t. You're stuck with touch wiz based roms

Nope. You can't install any aosp based Roms compiled from source. You can only use TW Roms, and one google edition ROM that's in the general section

Bricking when rooting is rare as long as you use the right files. And Samsung devices are pretty easy to unbrick you just flash stock back to the devices.

First link seemed irreverent. The second makes it look simple. I'll try to gather the correct file and go from there. ODIN is the stock file from Samsung?

it's not difficult it's just long .. and for the first time only until you get the rooted package. after you get the rooted package the method will take 15 minutes maximum in any other time you root your device.
In all honesty, if you can't sit down and spend some time reading and following instructions, you don't deserve root on your phone. Its very easy to do. All you have to do is read, and try for yourself.
