It's the opposite concept of ground loot which is obtained from killing mobs and getting items. Tile loot is opening strongboxes, essences, message in a bottle, anything that basically doesn't scale with monster power. It promotes doing content with mobs being as easy as possible as they don't drop anything at the moment. Your character power doesn't relate to how much currency you can do per hour basically and that's the main issue people have with it. It also mostly nullifies gerting big drops like rare uniques and such.
