The drake swarm moves up to the wizard, trips him and hits him for 14.5 damage on average. Then on the wizard's turn before he can take an action he gets hit for 14.5 again (and probably goes down if he is level 1-2). Meanwhile everyone else is taking damage pulses and hitting it for half damage.
My emphasis added. Why do you think that? Because of the aura effect? I think it is only ongoing damage which affects you before you take any actions.
