Straight forward guide.
It indicates that i'll lose any data/apps i have already.

That didnt happen when i rooted previous phones.
Does rooting delete all apps settings?
I thought that would only happen if i put on another ROM

CF Auto root. No custom recovery. Just root. You will need to install busybox yourself but there are several play store apps that will do that for you
