1. Start a new game with a Beast Master.
2. C:SetCurrentXP(161000).
3. Level up to level 8.
4. Open the priest spell book and add Animal Summoning I to the list of memorized spells.
5. Rest.
6. Cast Animal Summoning I.
Observed: The summoned animals are unsummoned after 200 seconds.
Expected: The animals should be unsummoned after 180 seconds (3 turns), as per the spell's description.
From the description of the Beast Master's Animal Summoning I spell (SPRA304.spl): "Duration: 3 turns".
The priest version of the spell (SPPR402.spl) uses the same description and it has the correct duration of 180 seconds.
The same bug also exists in BG2:EE v1.3.

You can experience this difference in the game. I've prepared a save.
1. Load the attached save.
2. Pause the game.
3. Let the Beast Master and Jaheira cast Animal Summoning I simultaneously.
4. Unpause.
Observed: Jaheira's animals are unsummoned first. The Beast Master's animals are unsummoned 20 seconds later.
Expected: Both spells should have the same duration.
Sorry if that wasn't clear from my initial report.
