Titan is hard because your camera isn't zoomed out, not because of server-side delays

How so? I never even paid attention to this setting (I don't even know what the difference is)

The difference is this:

Standard - movement based on your character's position
Legacy - movement based on camera's position

So on standard setting, when you press S, you do that slow backpedal thing away from whatever you're facing. On legacy setting when you press S, you turn around and run at normal speed towards the camera.

By the same token, I've found the Titan fight to be much easier using a controller than it is using mouse/keyboard.

there is still a large amount of pre-move, which is not right. It's basically fighting the server, not the battle.

The worse part is learning to run into landslide during P5 bombs. You have to do it before he ends his animation. That's messed up. to willing run into something you know should be killing you, just because the server is not synced correctly with your client.

If you had Titan as your target you would see that landslide finishes casting before he slams the ground. If you are in said landslide before the cast is done, even if you run out of it before he hits, you will still be hit. People seem to think this is supposed to be an action game, it's not. There are delays, and they are set that way. I play in Germany on NA servers and I have yet to encounter any lag issues bar ones from my ISP. As I've seen in several other posts, for people who are lagging it is computer related, or ISP related (ask them about throttling). As for on topic, if you aren't zoomed out in Titan you are probably going to die. If you don't know that plumes spawn on people and that you should move to areas where people are not after plumes spawn under your feet, you are probably going to die. I have RARELY seen explicit cases of lag, but this was confirmed by the person to be an ISP issue which was fixed for him the next day.
