Walkthrough
The fastest way to reach the Obsidian Flame Assassins is to exit from the Marketplace and enter the Undercity from Bukdek Byway. The Obsidian Flame Assassins will be just inside the Undercity. Simply follow the quest marker and lead them to the Shadow Blades' meeting point. At least one of the Obsidian Flame Assassins must survive or the quest will fail. As you arrive, a dialogue will trigger, and once finished, you will be able to attack the Shadow Blades. Kill them all to complete the objective.

Due to the number of Afflicted mobs on the way to the meeting point, the Obsidian Flame Assassins may die if you and your party are not careful, especially if you're playing with henchmen. If you are very careful you can avoid agro on the Afflicted groups close to the Shadow Blade's meeting point. Leaving the Afflicted parties alive may be useful if you encounter the BUG below.

As an alternative method, enter the Undercity from Wajjun Bazaar instead and start clearing your way towards the northern exit to rendezvous with the Obsidian Flame Assassins. After that, it is simply a matter of leading them to the Shadow Blades' meeting point.
