Yeah, I wouldn't think of the EQ on the virus as a mixing tool... Besides using Low Pass to roll off unwanted low end from a patch, like Timo said. Mid Eq can be used for a number of things: don't forget you can even modulate it's frequency, for example - making it a useful sound-design tool on some occasions.
I usually use Eq mainly for cutting myself... I really don't like the sound of boosting when using precise digital Eqs, that's where analogue beats the shit out of digital - when pushed hard it sounds sweet where digital only sounds muddy and distorted. so if you're really into boosting with Eqs, I'd say go for analogue (modeling) ones - those with some kind of character...
