How to unlock the Give Her a Hand achievement in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning - Definitive Guide
It has been bought to my attention that you must complete Aubrey's map questline first before the crab will offer her hand. She always gives you the first of 3 pieces of the map, leaving you to find the last 2. They are all found in chests inside the dungeons and I believe possibly one or two in flotsam piles. If you are vigilant searching whilst doing the main story quests, you should find them all. I didn't go out of my way to find any.
Please note, the achievement will pop as soon as you loot the hand. I already had the achievement when I made this video. Hope it helps.

Before you can actually acquire the hand, you'll need to complete the quest "Scattered Fragments" that she gives you. It consists of four separate treasure hunts. She will give you the first piece of each treasure map before each segment of the quest, while you'll need to find the other two in the locations below. You may as well collect all the map pieces first, then just dig all the treasures and turn them in successively.

Once you have all three pieces of a map, "use" one of them from your inventory to combine the three pieces and reveal the location of the treasure. After you dig up the first treasure, return to Aubrey and repeat the process for the other three. After finding all four treasures using the map locations, follow the video below to kill and loot a crab who has apparently eaten her hand!

She will give you 1 of 3 map fragments and you’ll have to locate the missing 2. When you’ve completed the set, go to your inventory > items > items > and select one of the 3 fragments. This will combine the pieces and it will mark a treasure on your map. Once you’ve found the treasure, head back to Audrey to start the search for the next fragments. There are a total of 4 maps, each consisting of 3 map fragments, 1 of which is always given to you by Aubrey.
These locations are written down as seen on the local world map.
Northern Coast:
- Fragment #2 - Mudhold Fasting. On the very left path, after jumping down, you'll come across a few skeletons. In the chest in the right corner.
- Fragment #3 - Mudhold Fasting. At the very end (bottom) of the dungeon, the outer part, in a pile of wreckage between two torches.
Jawbone:
- Fragment #2 - Souldeep Fasting. After opening the very first fate door, drop down. The very first chest on the right. You can't collect this fragment until you've started the 'Until Death' Main quest.
- Fragment #3 - Siren's Den. Follow the path on the left. In a chest at the very end, in the top left corner.
Cape Solace:
- Fragment #2 - Cliffbreak Fasting. Follow the path on the right. After a second encounter with a few Scavs, in the chest on the left.
- Fragment #3 - Brigand's Hideaway. Follow the path on the left. Once you're in the water, keep swimming on the right side. After a small swim, you can continue swimming or go left to land. Go on land and follow the path until you have to jump down. It's in the pile right behind you after jumping down. You can't collect this fragment until you've completed the Main quest line and started the 'The Invaders' side quest afterwards by talking to Alder Malloi in Cape Solace.
Once all 4 have been found, you’re not done yet, even though the quest itself is done. You’ll need to find Aubrey’s Hand. You’ll need to kill and loot a crab located near ‘Mudhold Fasting’. Here’s the location or see the related video.
