Can you solve a 4x4 with Roux?

[Roux Empress]

Sorry If it's a dumb question (don't sue me). I'm referring to the Redux method, I know about Meyer's but I really want something that I'll find tutorials and tips for. Would I still get parity? Could I get the same times as using CFOP for the 3x3 step? Thanks for taking your time to read that!!

>Can you solve a 4x4 with Roux?
Yes. You can use any 333 method you like after reduction.

>Would I still get parity?
Yes. "OLL parity" and "PLL parity" are so named for the CFOP steps in which they become apparent, but they apply to all the common reduction-based methods after reduction is done. In a Roux solve, you'd notice these two parities during LSE (or, if you're a bit more advanced, you can save some time by checking for OLL parity before CMLL). In a ZZ solve, you'd notice OLL parity during EOline and PLL parity during PLL/ZBLL. And so on.

>Could I get the same times as using CFOP for the 3x3 step?
Maybe, maybe not; only you would be able to know. I can't, but I'm also much slower with Roux than CFOP/Petrus/ZZ to begin with.

Meyer method and the Stadler method are the top choices. There are many more variants to solve big cubes using Roux, but these two have been implemented by top Roux solvers.

I've heard of Meyer but Stadler?

You can look up resources on it. I have solve using all big cube method variants here,
