99 warp spheres Omega ruins strategy?

[arkuatic]

http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Omega_Ruins mentions "The exception is the PC HD remake version, where players can reroll to get the 99 Warp Spheres by using the save in the ruins." but I was unable to find any sources for this. How exactly does this work against the RNG system? Any guides?

Afaik, if you open a chest successfully you can then save. If you find a mimic, then reload and try a different chest untill all 12 are opened. Obviously no encounters will be a great help here.

Doesn't seem to be the case, if you save and reload it will restart the chests so you won't be able to get the 99 spheres.

Well, the guy who made that edit is here, ask him, it says he replies quickly to messages:

I think all that actually changes is the layout of where the mimic chests are in the rotation. The actual number of mimics, I believe, is still locked upon first entering the ruins.

It's also seriously not even worth wasting your time on. If you're only interested in them to get at nodes behind lvl3/4 locks, then there are much easier ways to get a couple warp spheres from drops/bribes.

Doesn anyone contacted the guy to have a confirmation about the streategy?

I tried saving/reloading (reloading whenever I encountered a mimic), and opened up every chest this way. However, I didn't get the 99 Warp Spheres, so I guess it has to be all in one go.

why even bother? What good is 99 warp sphere's?

They're for all intensive purposes - USELESS.

What with skill, Special, attribute, blk and wht mag, & master sphere's,
And friend, return, and teleport sphere's, which are all easier to obtain.

To obtain many Teleport, Key Spheres, and other useful types, you need to be of a very high level, unlock monsters in Zoo, etc.... no?

It's just saying that you can use the a save in the ruins to reload and start again everytime you fail to get the warp spheres. It's not saying that you can reload a save between each chest.
