At what point should I buy a Warmogs?
I feel like other Hp items provide more stats in terms of actives, passives, and amor/Mr I don't really feel the hp regen on Warmogs doing much :(

Its better than you think, for whatever reason. It becomes really noticeable once you get a couple other items. I also find it good if you dont want to build an MR item and they dont have much MR damage to make you build one but just enough that the HP pool and regen covers up for the lack of MR. Like if they only have one AP champ and they dont really have sustained damage or something.
Also, I like to combo it with a thornmail instead of building randuins. Its a more expensive path, but works wonders. The item is a bit underrated, IMO.
its only worth buying on chaps with large hp pools or scale with hp
in most other cases the extra armor/mr and passives you get from other items outweigh the regen 
The HP regen passive only really kicks in once you get 1-2 other items to back it up.
Unless your using I wouldn't rush the item.
When you feel youre taking too much damage and not enough hp to cover it.
Frozen mallet gives almost as much HP now with warmog's recent nerfs... so unless you need to be out of combat for long periods of time mallet is generally better IMO
the general idea is after the nerfs almost never except situationally.
I normally just build 
instead
Basically never. It's horribly slot AND gold inefficient. Not to mention that the passive is only useful when you're ahead enough to survive a team fight.
Do the Math: 3% hp5 means 35% HP in a minute. Or full health in less than three minutes. Without considering any other sources of health regen.
That means whenever you expect to survive a fight and have some time until the next, Warmogs is a good choice. This is mostly with enemy Poke teams.
It's regen is good when you have a bunch of small skirmishes multiple times throughout the mid game, but you won't have it in mid game so yeah.
I usually use it as a last bought item on Leona support, just because with W she's naturally tanky and that extra health means I can stay in center of team stunning people and not have to worry about them killing me quickly.
