While much of the weight of the sword rested on the hip, the shoulder strap provided extra support from the opposite side of the body. This added balance and comfort. Assyrians, Romans and Vikings are all shown in contemporary art wearing baldrics.
A favourite way to wear a sword since biblical times, the use of the baldric continued even into the 17th century.
