So yes, you COULD technically do it, but why not just build AP instead since the amount healed scales with AP? Building HP sounds like a terrible idea.
The amount of HP5 is really ridiculous and the survivability means that you cannot as easily be picked/focused. At 3000 HP warmogs provides Soraka an extra heal every 3.5 seconds. When you haven't taken damage it provides 450 HP/5 in addition to any other health regen you gain.
This means that soraka can heal indefinitely without worry of getting low. It means she can take damage and still heal without killing herself. It means that pulling out of a fight will let her add heals on the back end of it.
I mean, its 450 HP/5 for a champion that dearly needs HP/5
Edit: With HP yellows and 9 points of defense. Soraka will hit 3000.39 HP at level 18 with just warmogs and blue sightstone
I guess it's not bad then but given the amount of gold you'd have in the situations were you would buy it, I would probably have
Zeke, SS, boots, gp10, locket/banner
so it's that item vs. Majais or even the heal buff thingy isn't that bad after it got buffed, it would defiantly take my team struggling to deal with poke to choose it, but in that situation you are probably right

I agree. Warmog is, IMO, a niche item at best vs poke teams. If you want more heal it's easier to just buy more AP.

Well, no.
But imagine he said "I am so tired of playing with all of you fucking virgins" every 3 minutes for the entire game because his team was losing badly and he was on tilt.
Weirdest ARAM thing happened ever: I got a pentakill as Karthus 1v5- I had died to poke earlier, so I came back to the enemy team mostly low, and snowball+Archangel's and Zhonyas gave me enough time to kill them all. But Jinx killed me right before my last q hit her, also giving her a pentakill since she had killed all my teammates right as I respawned.
So the rare simultaneous double pentakill, with one of them being a 1v5. I don't have a video unfortunately. :/

Not for Soraka, which is what we were talking about. Also i think you're underestimating the value of the passive, which really is a ridiculous amount of HP/5
