Should I get a dehumidifier to cancel out the dryer or just vent the dryer elsewhere? My light should bring temps up to a more reasonable level with 600W HPS but I'm really worried about the humidity right now. Is there anyone out there that has encountered these problems in their basement before?
can you vent your dryer outside? That would be a solution. Though you would probably want a dehumidifier in your basement anyway since most basements retain moisture in the air.

I would just get one and put it next to your grow spot. If your grow area is in an enclosed space in your basement even better, but basically you just want to reduce the humidity around your plants. It'd be a hassle to reduce humidity for the entire basement (assuming it's the same square footage as your homes living area 1 level up).
