Achievement doesn't work - Support can't (won't) help?

The Rank 1 Deconstruction Analyst achievement awards the Rank 1 Materials dye, however, for me this doesn't seem to work - The dye simply doesn't unlock. I can't retry, because the achievement is already unlocked, just the dye isn't.

I've asked support whether they can fix this, but their first response was "make sure you do enough damage to the boss to get the achievement". Helpful.

The second was 'i've escalated it'.

The third was "make sure you do enough damage to the boss."

The fourth was "bad luck, file a bug report, we will never speak to you again" (paraphrased of course).

Of course, a bug report for an issue like this is just going in the drawer to get looked at and marked as low priority at some point in july 2034, and in the mean time i'm implicitly being asked to make a new character if i want to get that dye.

Why is it not possible to simply remove the achievement from my character, so i can deconstruct another tier 1 item to try and make it work this time, or simply unlock the rank 1 materials dye? I'm only getting answers that don't apply or a straight up "no" without any kind of explanation :(

    Is this the only one that does not unlock?

    I know it used to work.

    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Yeah, all of the others work perfectly fine, it's just this one dye which refuses to be unlocked.

    Reinstalled, repaired, addons removed (i wasn't using any at all until a few days ago even).

    EDIT: Finally, solved! Finally someone at support gave me the critical hint needed.

    I only play one character, and i didn't know dyes were shared across characters (yes, i'm oblivious to lots of stuff). This supporter (Sadie, thank you!) was the first one to actually mention this and ask me to try getting the achievement again on another character instead of crudely pointing me to file a bug report.

    So i did that, and it's fixed :)
