For the last couple of days, I was having trouble managing high humidity. It was high 74-79% RH and temps at about 77-80 deg. I bought in a dehumidifier to drop the RH to about 50-60% but it gives off a heat load into my tent bringing it up to 85-89 degrees. Since I'm towards the end of flower I'm just doing the extra surveillance through the end (another week +/- or so) to manage the RH and temps.
The question here is if I needed to keep one more in check than the other, which is more devastating to the end product. I know high temps degrade trichomes but high humidity creates an environment for mold and mildew. Thoughts?

Tough situation. If I had to choose one or the other, I'd go with temp and would make sure there is a ton of airflow and hope bud rot or PM doesn't happen.
Just got a digital microscope… here are some trichome shots.
