If you feel the mob should have a chance to hit for as little as 1, then you should make the mindmg 1. Some boss mobs will have a mindmg higher than that and need to be taken into consideration.
Any deviation from the damage calculation the server uses will require changes to the code on the server. If I had to bet money, I would bet that the server does not calculate damage accurately as compared to live. Players seem to report that the current combat rolls favor the player a bit, either by having them hit a little higher than live would let them, or the mob hitting for less or both. You might find that a valid reason for putting higher-level mobs on a mindmg higher than 1 even if that doesn't hold 100% true to EQLive.
