I'm not sure where to go from here. I think swapping Hover for Combat Jumping would be ideal for melee. I can solo AVs and some Monsters, and my focus is PVE. I fought Crystal Titan, but Ambrosia was not helpful enough and Luck insps seemed useless.

The crystal titan is a tricky one, since (like you noticed) it's attacks are auto hit and ignore defense....abd the only source of resist available is ambrosia.

 

The best counter for a melee char trying to solo it is to have lots of healing or regen, pump red insps, and hope for the best.

• Swap the psi/status resist piece in Deflection for more dmg resist.
• Active Defense should get 2x recharge IOs. The DDR stacks.
• Since you've taken Energy Mastery, I would take Focused Accuracy over Tactics. The resistance to tohit debuffs is very useful. 
• Redeploy the slots in Grant Cover. The defense doesn't affect you, just your teammates.
• OWTS is putting you 200 points over the HP cap. Redeploy the heal slots or swap to end mod.
• Why are you skipping Shield Charge? Victory Rush or Assault could easily be dropped. 
• Take Combat Jumping instead of Hover. Much more useful on a melee character. 
• No travel power?

The Crystal Titan has 3 attacks:

Prism Blast: 60 degree cone with 310 ft radius. 525 energy (1.5 acc)/525 unique damage (autohit). 

Foot Stomp: 30 foot radius PBAOE. 1155 smashing (1.5 acc)/875 unique damage (autohit)

Salt Crystals: 30 foot radius PBAOE. 525 lethal damage (1.0 acc). 20% -def (autohit)

 

Only the unique damage is autohit and can only be resisted (partially) by Ambrosia inspirations. The standard damage requires a tohit check and can be resisted and blocked by defense. Note that Prism Blast and Foot Stomp have higher than normal accuracy. Suggest loading up on large orange inspirations.

 

Crystal Titan also has 40% En/Ne/Tx and 20% Le/Fi/Co/Psi resist. Not sure from the above if you're trying to solo him, but you may need Envenomed Blades and/or a pet that does smashing damage.
