I never understood that and still can't fathom it. I came back to EQ when a new blue server came up (Trakanon), having never really used mercs I soon got used to them. My shaman had a warrior merc who was extremely good and definitely a sustainable duo.
I don't like mercs, but in my mind they eliminated the need to give SOE your hard (or not hard) earned cash 3 times over :s

Later on it's impossible to keep a merc up and kill stuff with just a shaman and tank in the group, you will need some extra chars. The easiest way forward? Box a DPS with a cleric merc. That's your second account.
Once you start boxing, it kind of becomes addictive because you realise that you don't need a group for anything, you HAVE a group. Then most people add another box, normally a shaman or bard because of the ADPS and ease of boxing.
If I remember correctly, it seems like most people 3 box, at least that's what seems to be discussed most often. That gives you a full group available 100% of the time.
