Dreadguard- The bulk of the Defilers infantry are Dreadguard. Not your low level Deathguard guarding towns and and clumsily swinging a sword. The Dreadguard are soldiers of the Forsaken who have honed their skills in battle and wield it with terrifying skill.
One only has to ask the Dwarves of the battle for Than’dol Span, the skill and ferocity of the Dreadguard. A bloody conflict that lasted for two weeks before the Dreadguard were called in, quelling the invading force in a matter of two days.

Up to date PvP gear.
Dreadknight- A top their Vicious Skeletal Warhorses, the Dreadknights strike a chill down the spine of any force that they encounter. With the aid of their heavy cavalry the Defilers make use of pincer tactics to eliminate the rear support of an enemy army.
Their weapons are blessed by the Cult of Forgotten Shadows and imbued with the blood of a Dwarf, whom they must slay in single combat.
“I have raided Forsaken and Human settlements for many years. Had I but a handful of Dreadknights at my back, I dare say, I could have conquered Ironforge itself.” -High Executor Pestifer, before the Alliance Siege of Tarren Mill.
The Dreadguard make up the infantry, heavy infantry, Calvary and riflemen/archers of the Defilers.
