Answer: The effect from Desperate Blows is only active when you use Last Resort. Also, the effect from Last Resort and Hasso during the same short amount of time is capped at 25%. So a fully merited Desperate Blows at 25% is equal to a Desperate Blows taken to the 3rd level (15%) + Hasso (10%). If you merit Desperate Blows above the 3rd level, using something other than Samurai for a support job is more viable. This is why they are the same up until the 3rd level.

I went out and tested with a Relic Scythe. (The 999 Delay one.)

Hasso + Last Resort(Level 5 - Desperate Blows) gave 751 Delay. (24.9% Haste)

Last Resort(Level 5 - Desperate Blows) gave 746 Delay. (25.33% Haste)

The small difference in haste is probably margin of error/lag/whatever. What it shows is that JA Haste definetly caps at 25%.

in short JA Haste definetly caps at 25%

guess you can say dont use it with Last Resort with Hasso , its stll can be used with Seigan + TE and get full effect
 
Interesting. I wonder if this includes the 5%-10% Haste from Haste Samba.

Just for the sake of clarity, Sambas are overridden by any added effect on the weapon that a player is using, or anything that generates an added effect (i.e. Blood Weapon). It never takes precedence over any other add effect, so Haste Samba is completely useless with Blood Weapon up, or any enspells from equipment or the actual spells themselves.

Doesn't directly answer your question, but if Blood Weapon is active the samba would be overwritten anyway. No one's posted further responses to the haste samba itself being included, but in a zerg-type situation where Blood Weapon would be used, it's not going to help.
