s3 has + 4 str + 1 stam + 15 hit...(biggest part IMO) 98 armor pen and higher base damage.... (while being a wee bit faster so ya get a base 7.2 dps more....)
This is a no brainer..... S3 beats the ever living hell outta stormherald.
Period.
If you are referring to pvp then the extra 33 resil beats the stun proc... as does the armor pen...

Expendable: SoC does not work like that. It's ppm- it does *not* have a higher chance to proc with a slower weapon, nor is the converse true.

The slower swing speed of .2 seconds makes the difference in damage bracket and overall crit damage- the proc rate is irrevelevant.
Read the whole entry, and down at the bottom, you'll see the formula for SoC proc rates:
7/(60/3) = .35/35%
7/(60/3.6) = .42/42%
7/(60/3.80) = .44/44%
Swing speed does affect proc rate.

Use the S3 weapon. It provides better overall PvP stats than relying on the random stun proc.
If you can't drop them with the stuns you already have you're going to be living on bad news street.
You can't ignore how much of an impact having the armor pen from the S3 weapon makes as well. You need to have a decent amount of base armor pen to make executioner worth having for it'll just won't be effective.
Also you can use the S3 weapon as a decent PvE weapon where the low DPS on Stormherald just falls behind.
S3 > Noobherald.
