Distributed builds and load are the main reasons.
A lot of us have a "build server", we stick Bamboo on it and run everything locally. But what if the server becomes overloaded? Remote agents let you do builds on other machines (without having to install a separate Bamboo for each one). Similarly, building in different environments can be done - I know of several places that build essentially the same code for Windows, Linux and Mac and need to build/test on different OS's and even versions.
