So I was learning how to solve an Ultramorphix I bought just recently, but I got stuck at the last layer with the case you can see in the image below. Im not sure if that is a form of parity or not but since 5x5 doesn’t have that type of parity, and I couldn't find any guides online regarding it, I was wondering if anyone knew if it was parity and if so how to solve it.

Thanks, the algorithm did flip the edges but it also ended up flipping all the centers in the row that I did the algorithm… so i can solve it now but i have to redo it once I fix there 😅

2 edges flipped ... If you only had 1 edge flipped then you would have parity. You can't use the standard 4x4 parity alg to solve that case as it will mess up other parts of the puzzle. For the parity you will need to use the RedBull algorithm .... r2 B2 U2 l U2 r' U2 r U2 F2 r F2 l' B2 l2 ... The lower case are inner slices. The RedBull alg does swap some inner edge pieces of the top center so you'll need to fix that before finishing up, but the parity will be gone.

I absolutely love the Morphix puzzles, have from 3x3 to 8x8 and I see the 10x10 was recently released as well .... https://www.cubezz.com/Buy-6813-ShengShou+10-layer+Mastermorphix+Stickerless+Magic+Cube.html

The jump in price from the 8x8 to 10x10 is massive though, $28 vs $68

Edit:

There is also a PLL parity that you can get where you need to only swap 2 corners. In that case there is another longer alg that will sort that for you ....

Setup into wide T perm, undo setup
