You'll only get the 'helping a friend' bonuses if you are grouped with the lvl 1 toon AND you mentor the high level toon down the lvl 1, then quest and kill together at lvl 1. If you run two toons in a group outside of the lvl range, then neither toon will receive Any XP.

If you want to powerlevel your high lvl dirge to 80, the best bet is to do what Noxxy said, quest in Kunark. Grinding takes Way Too Long once you hit 70. Quest XP is the way to go. Besides, you won't find better armor than the legendary stuff you can quest for in Fens, Jarsanth & Kunzar (solo).

However... if you take the time to powerlevel a healer using your dirge (in this case, go with a Warden, Templar or Inquisitor to take advantage of the dirges melee buffs), then in the future, you can use the healer to powerlevel future toons. Generally speaking, if you mentor a level 68 toon with a level 1 character and run them through quests and zones that the lvl 68 toon hasn't already done, by the time the lvl 1 char is lvl 70, the level 68 toon will be lvl 80 (if not higher).
