Guild Wars 2

I would like an official Dev to answer this question please? Regardless of what class you play or build. How are the classes even close to being balanced? Even before the last patch the gap was pretty wide between the classes. Now with the new patch it seems while some improved the gap is even wider between some classes.
I have many level 80’s I enjoy playing them all, but the difference is huge in my opinion. Just explain it to me please and it may also help some of the rage threads calm down. Thank You

Which I get but does it not seem some classes are in fact far superior to others? Example my thief in pve sucks, mobs destroy me. But in WvW the thief is good, same for the Mesmer in pve not great WvW good. Guardian good in both if traited and played correctly, ranger op in pve and still good in WvW. So how is this a balance?
