How to Notate Irregular Tempo ( ๐…ž + ๐…  = 70 )?

Hello everyone,

Iโ€™m working on a piece in 5/8, where the eighth notes are very fast (around 400 bpm).
Now I want to create a quintuplet-like feel, and Iโ€™d like to express the tempo as something like:
half note + eighth note = 70 bpm โ€” to reflect that slower, grouped pulse.

Unfortunately, I havenโ€™t found a way to notate this kind of tempo indication in Dorico.
Is there a workaround or method to do this properly?

Thanks in advance for any tips!
