this line kinda makes no sense on the patch notes since well shared quest do not have unlimited timers - Shared tasks will now accurately display a max duration of 24 hours rather than listing unlimited time remaining. so does that mean the normal quests with unlimited time limits on them will now have a 24hr timer?? or does it mean shared task timers will be extended to 24hrs now if so that is an awesome change!! but not so much if quests require you to do them in 24hr or request them again if not

Basically tasks that has information about unlimited time was fake, they always folded when 24 hours had gone. Now it comes with true time of 24 hours instead. Tasks with no info about duration still are unlimited time.
Most of them showed "Unlimited". But they weren't really unlimited, they were 24 hours. Now that's fixed. As for the OP saying it makes no sense, it absolutely makes sense and has nothing to do with all of the regular tasks you have... this is for shared tasks only. Things like The Way Back Home in Eastern Wastes, or A Petitioner's Plight in Stratos. Lots of others out there. EoK's Chardok Partisan's tasks come to mind. VP's Partisan tasks...
