Edges permutation of the last layer, abbrevaited EPLL, is the sub group of PLL where only the edges are permuted. EPLL is also used in many other methods, sometimes as a stand alone sub step, like in COLL but also as a sub group, for example in ELL or ZBLL.

EPLL algorithms

Note that all of these algorithms assume that you are right-hand dominant and know the Western notation, where a lowercase letter means a double-layer turn and rotations are denoted by x, y, and z. (how to add algorithms)

H Permutation

Name: H-PLL, X-PLL
Used in: EPLL, CPLL, PLL, ELL, ZBLL, ZZLL
Optimal moves: 10 HTM, 7 STM
X-PLL is H-PLL + U2.

Speedsolving Algorithms

PLL R2' S2' R2 U R2' S2' R2
PLL R2' S2' R2 U' R2' S2' R2
PLL M2' U2 M2' U M2' U2 M2'
PLL M2' U2 M2' U' M2' U' M2'

Note that the last two algorithms should only be used as Post-AUF tricks, as it saves having to do a U or U' after the PLL if necessary.
