In 1.0, Does anyone else feel like slamming NPCS into objects, walls, and the floor got severely nerfed?

Does anyone know how to fix not being able to kill or at least severely damage NPCS by slamming them into walls, tables, etc like how it used to work? I’m a player who focuses heavily on H2h combat, and I like to slam my opponents heads or necks into tables walls wtver. But upon playing 1.0, I notice I can’t do that as good/deadly. Anyone have any suggestions to fix it? Or any modders able to make a mod to bring back 12.0 strength?
