Base Health Regen and Passives

Can anyone tell me how Items with base health regen like effect champs passives like low health heal and picking up his globs and passive heals on cast. I play and a lot and it seems the more regen Items I have, the more their passives heal me. Way more then just the scaling with my health as a %. For example early game i can get in a fight with walk out just as passive pops and it appears I get exactly 30% as it says. Later after some regen items, NOT more % heal items, I will get at least half or more. blobs early will do just at the 4% max but later I can walk in a jung clear 2 camps and be full health when I leave. I know with Zac it is due to scaling with Max health vs current health on cast and armor and such. But when i go full AP zac with no regen I don't get the same effect n the jungle. I did some googling and reading but its a bit unclear and seems is just more HP5 but is seems to work for both.

Base health regen, as the name says, ONLY affects base health regen. If your base hp regen is 10 per 5, getting 100% base hp regen adds 10 health per 5 to it. You might be confusing Spirit Visage's passive (20% increased healing from all sources) or the fact most base hp regen items have health or other defensive stats (thus meaning you take less damage and thus don't lose as much health).

As the other post said, are you sure you don't have Spirit Visage? item 3065 Its passive increases healing.

For Zac, I'm pretty sure HP regen items won't increase the health from blob. For Volibear and Gragas, I'm not sure, since it's a continuous healing effect. Maybe it is considered "base" regen, but it would be strange.

Yes. I am sure. I know I get almost always get item 3065 for that heal buff. And item 3211 is normally the first MR item I get if not item 3111 . But is health regen not Heal Buff. But seems to start Big boosting the heals. Unless the Unique Passive of is not stopped by Jungle monsters. Then that may explain it.

Here is my typical Zac build item 1409 Wards OP, item 3111 item 3742 ---then item 3211 and will sit on it till------ item 3143 or item 3075
then item 3102 item 3065 //// May swap for item 3157 end game to get more dmg and will be over like 4k health. But after the My globs heal OP. Might just be the Health scale 4% max vs 4% current.
